Ok... I'm one who... doesn't like the phone, and could live without it. So long as we have computers.
Anyways... does anyone else not like phones to the point where they get annoyed when they get a phone call?

Sometimes, but then other times It is a good thing to have. Home phones I oculd forever live without, but my cell I need for emegencies and such. All in all The net is so much more important, but the phone is a needed thing in my life to, even if Ihate using it lol.
I used to be freaked out by the phone when I was little. Got over it during puberty. Then the internet came along and I kind of went back to being really not into the phone. I just don't really like phone conversations. I mean, I use my cell, but it is mostly for conversations along the lines of "where is the parking at this restaurant?" or "I'm stuck in traffic so it will be another fifteen minutes or so" or "is the party you are at better than the party I am at?" My brother actually text messages those convos on his phone, but that seems perhaps overboard to me.
i dont like phones and i hate cell phones the only reason i own a cell phone is because i move around a lot and i need a permanent contact number i usually dont even take it with me when i go out i almost never use the regular phone either except to order pizza
I don't like phones eaither. I have a cell phone and I usually ignore 90% of the calls just because...Usually only answer if my bf calls...everyone else...Meh they know were I live.
I hate it when people don't like phones. I'd rather have someone call me, but most people would rather wait and wait and wait until you sign on instant messenger. I view those people as a bunch of pussies who are too afraid to pick up the phone, because that would mean actual conversation.
I like having a cellphone. It's convenient. If someone calls who I don't want to talk to, the ID will tell me and I just don't answer. ;P Also, only give out your number to people you want to talk to. I prefer real life situations to anything over the phone, though.
i held out on getting a mobile phone for several years after everyone else i knew had one. I think i was trying to make some kind of statement, but then i was like "fuck it!" and went out and bought the most cheap ass design i could find. I'll never upgrade.
whatever anyone else says though.....mobile phones are damn useful.

I love actual conversation. I just don't like phones. I like talking face to face, unless I'm online, in which case I love chatting with my friends.Quote:

Cell phones are a necessary evil but I always feel like I'm one of those tagged animals you see on nature shows...I can be reached anywhere and at anytime...I hate that.
On the plus side I can play tetris on it so Woo hoo!
I agree, 100%.Quote:
