I'm so old I Remember when:

Is there a reason for this?

I use my phone for calls, texts, and taking pictures. I also have a bunch of notes on it for working on my project. No web stuff on my phone, at all.
I think it has to do with the way phones have been. From what I know of old cell phones they were vertical. So Apple took that, removed the keypad, and put a screen instead. Not to mention, the old, really small ones are near impossible to use in landscape due to the tiny display. I think Apple has stuck with vertical as the main since most people use their phones that way.
 
I want to feel comfortable in my clothes. To be able to breathe, to eat, to move. And to feel attractive. Clothes should be practical and feel good. Some women's fashions are absurd. Like the offset neckline. They only do that so you feel you have to buy new clothes every season to stay in style. What a waste of money! Clothing should be practical. Like, what good are fake pockets that are sewn shut? Men would not tolerate such ridiculousness for a minute!

Oh the no pockets/fake pockets thing kills me. So many of us complain it's a wonder they haven't stopped doing it.

It wasn't so long ago that clothes were made to fit you instead of the other way around. Almost no one has an off-the-rack body.
 
They can't keep their cat inside? I'm going back and forth between thinking your neighbors are lazy about taking care of their own pets and don't really care about their health.

Grrrr... people who allow their cats to roam around here are ignorant or downright cruel. Coyotes love eating cats. Also I don't need cats hanging out around our chickens and using our yard and gardens as their hunting grounds and litter boxes. All that dander and urine makes my lungs shut down. Keep cats indoors!
 
I wear an apron most of the day so I have pockets like a kangaroo does... but not when I go to town.

Pockets used to be their own clothing item, worn under skirts. There was a slit in the skirt and you reached through it to access the pockets. The pockets were big and useful. Sort of the 18th century version of a double fanny pack.

I find side pockets is great idea.
I wear an apron when I am in the garden with my feather kids, my apron has a front pocket and I have sunflower seeds in it. I need more than 1 pocket. I am going to modify an old denim dress into an apron and it already has 2 pockets on the side.
