I hate cellphone contracts.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

What's wrong with contracts? Do you go stretches of time without the use of a cell phone?

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Pretty much!

Only use this thing for emergencies and for old people who can't take advantage of my unlimited text.

I don't think I've been phoneless for a decade.

my prepaid here works out to $3 a month for unlimited mail, plus a mandatory $12 of talk time. It's basically a dollar a minute to talk.

Honestly, I saw a blind guy the other day with a cell phone, and thought "Why the hell does he need one of those? He can't se-- oh right, it's a telephone". In the states, young people mostly use phones for texting. Japan makes America's college students look like they're on phones nonstop.

Metro PCS is pretty good if you're in one of their coverage areas. I was with them for over a year. It's $40 a month, unlimited talk, net, and text, comes out to a bit more with taxes. It's easy to pay them online, too, if you're like me and you forget until they turn your phone off (which is the day after your payment was due). It's a little more than that per month if you want to be able to send pic messages, but still, all I needed was the texting. Even now I don't have unlimited talk (with Sprint) because this plan is much cheaper than the unlimited one and I don't really make phone calls that often. But oh, do I send some text messages.

I fucking love bills here. You just take them to a convenience store, they scan the bar code, and you pay with however you'd buy shit from the shop.

Which is great for me; the only card I carry is the debit card for my bank back home... the only ATMs I've gotten it to work at are the post office ones, but that's just fine and dandy since they only charge a buck twenty five and have a fucking unbelievable exchange rate.

All of my bills except for my rent are automatically deducted from my account. My bank and the internet are helping to keep my credit healthy, because let's face it, I'm a forgetful fucker.

Oh, I forgot the pet peeve category.

One, getting to the station in the morning, the notice board has an important message scrolling across it, and the only thing you can read is 'terrorism'. So I just want to get to class on time, and the train is late and there's something to do with terrorism and I've got no fucking clue. Frustrating to say the least.

Two, fine Friday night, free time, easy homework that you have more than enough time to do, plans to meet with a friend... and then they get a cold. And yes Taskmage, it's exactly what you're thinking and you have no idea how shitty it is.

She'd amputate my arm off in my sleep if I did that. She's scary. I also don't address her weight directly because that would put me 6 feet under. I just talk about her "health" and try to maneuver the dangerous seas with this little row boat of mine using metaphors, memes and various code words. I sometimes feel like the old man in Old Man and the Sea except the seas are 1,200 feet high and permanently hangs over you waiting for you to make the wrong move.

Ok, I know thats not funny but...HAHAHAHHAHA! Totally relate! I have a family member that I fear for her life with her yo-yo dieting and getting bigger every time. Trying to talk to her about it is like trying to walk silently on nightingale floors! It's damn exhausting!

God damn prepaid phones... no, scratch that. Damn Virgin Mobile and your phones!!

It has the habit of dialing numbers with the slightest pressure against the buttons, so I make sure to leave it's key-guard feature on. For some reason, it was off - and I had it in my pocket the whole day! Add that with a mix of me constantly shifting in my seat, and you get a bunch of calls to $&$&% and ####6. Ah, can't forget my cousin #$&(#^$(*

Phone thinks it's funny to even consider those real numbers and adds them to my minutes. It was 29/300min. three days ago... it is now 241/300min.

Hubby has a touchy phone too. He hates it. But once in a while it provides him some amusement. His phone has voice recognition. So when he uses his phonebook verbally, he will say the persons name and it will say the "Calling <name>". He also wears it on his belt so he pushes buttons a lot. One day my hubby, son, and I were going to the movies. When we got there and he was getting out of the car, he bumped the phone and it said something. He got mad and took the phone off his belt while saying "F**king bitch!" So the phone said "Calling TGM" (of course it was my given name not TGM). My son and hubby had such a laughing fit they couldn't get out of the car. Damn fools...

LMAO! That's too damn funny! Its like the voice recognition phone calls where you gotta say who you are calling, and due to my speech impediment, they can't understand me. When I get frustrated with it, and yell incoherent words at them, they finally connect me with the right person. XD

That's my oldest daughter in a nutshell. Except she's really lazy and just doesn't like to bother with making herself clear. But when she is angry or frustrated, words come out so eloquently and fluently, it's disconcerting at times.

Eh: Japanese music TV station rarely has anything good on. That's fine, still beats MTV

Bad: Said channel starts playing some AKB48 drivel

Terrible: I start to find inspiration in lyrics of said drivel

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Never understimate the moe power of AKB48.
