Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

No fooling. We'd tell the pilots to turn up the heat so the covers would be thrown off. It was embarrassing.

oh my heavens!!

I like the "dumb phone" concept. Who needs a phone that's smarter than they are? I have a flip-top, which is what I assume you mean. Works just fine; does everything a phone is supposed to do, and I don't feel it's necessary to have access to the internet everywhere I go. I get laughed at by the younger folks at work, but I don't worry that it'll be stolen (I usually leave it at home), didn't pay $400 -500 for it, don't have to get upgrades all the time, don't pay $100+ per month, don't have to worry if I have "service", and don't get lost following incorrect GPS directions. Who's laughing now?

Agreed. I don't want to be called unless I want to talk. Don't even turn on my cell unless making a call. $39…no internet. but has a great camera, video and more stuff I don't care about. I let my land line go to answer to avoid all the solicitations. My few friends know to start a message and i'll pick up if I am home.

Personally I really don't like phone chats….but love these.

This!

Mine is a "dumb" phone too, I've actually had people call it that.

It does everything a phone should and that makes me happy, apparently there are people out there that are not aware that a telephone doesn't need to do anything more than make and receive phone calls. Lol!

Smart phones are just tiny computers...

Right.

I just don't understand why people judge you if you choose to abstain... I already have a computer at home, why do I need to carry one around with me? Lol!

Yes and they eat up your air time if you bump the wrong button while they are in your pocket.

My phone is a pre-paid, half way between a flip phone and a smart phone. I wish i never upgraded but i washed my flip phone and couldn't find one like the old one. The new phone has to be re-charged after every phone call and doesn't have the ability for people to leave messages. It pisses a lot of people off, especially when "I left you a message" is the excuse they give for not calling. The phone does have a web browser that will only go to the Tell-a-carriers web site. Why i would want to go there i haven't quite figured out. But, I lost a thousand minutes one day because the button that turns on the browser got pushed. Its the only button on the phone that doesn't "lock".

Sounds like a rigged game against you when that one button doesn't lock.

Just like planned obsolescence

Wait I'm not sure if that's the right term... When a digital device is poorly built or built with programming that actually stops its function after a set amount of time... Yeah it's called planned obsolescence right?
