Re: Thread for posting useless $#!t

i had a motorola razor
handed down to me from my older sister

then the speaker started to fuzz and cut out

so i got a LG shine

went on vacation and left the phone in my swimtrunks for about 10 minutes underwater...
that night we disassembled it and put it in the oven while it was still slightly warm to try to evaporate some of the water out
phone worked for a week and now says fatal error when turned on

so i went back to the dying motorola razor

luckily for me, my step brother was about to get a new phone and thus i got his old one

a sony erikson from about 3 years ago
i like it, but its kinda big
no one's ever seen/heard of it before

ill twist it open and attract attention from lots of people who've never seen it before

My cell doesn't have a cuddly name like "Shine" or "Razr" but it does everything I need a phone to do.


I dreamed I was in a flash forest fire last night. :/

Really? Who has never heard of an Ericson? AT&T sells em like crazy.. Of course I hate Sony phones and think the Ericson's are music-based garbage so I never wanted one.. But a lot of the youths think they're great!
