You guys have ADD.

How does a thread about testicular injury wander off into what cell phones are best?

So my photo shoot didn't go as hoped. My giant purple left one grossed out the photographer. He said it was the most unerrotic sight he'd ever seen.

Just learned how to make fart noises by lying on my back and cupping my palms behind my knees. You just move your feet like you're walking and it makes this really funny noise. God, it's a lot of fun....

I thought this thread was about slackers. That's why I'm here, anyway.

RealityCheck is on a distinguished road
I TOTALLY agree with those who say who "in their right mind" would want to cruise while being connected 24/7/365. That is one of the prime reasons I like to cruise... to be away from all the garbage I would have to live with if I were still at home. If I had any desire to be Berry Connected or i connected that much I would just stay home or at the office.

Paul, I'm with you 100%.
I have a basic phone, don't text because I can't read the damn screen. Hate voice mail, if I don't answer I'm either busy or I don't want to talk to you, call back, if I don't answer again take the hint.

Mike, you just get to a point in life where you just say F%&# it. I'm not sure how old you are but I'm about Paul's age and it just is not worth trying to keep up with the Jones'. There are far better things in life.

If you are Paul"s age than I older than both of you. I am the tail end of one generation and you guys are the start of another. Lets put this way, you could vote at 18, I could not. I got drafted at 17. I am not bitchin"

However, I am in awe, how the torch has been passed and how well you "kids" are keeping the flame alive. If I don't want talk to you and I pay for the phone, why would you think I would answer it.

My kids don't feel the same way!
Maybe just maybe you younger guys can get the message to them. Rock on.

Being of an inquisitive nature I googled....Droid.....I had no idea.....In my day droids were widdle wobots called Huey Dewey and Louie.....

then I googled Dingleberry.....whoa......you'd only want to use hands free with one of those suckers......

afterwards I probed a porcine lefticle......he's right....it did turn purple....though now its kind of turning blackish.......I reckon its for the chop.....pork chop of course....


ps - Hey Smack......never underestimate the power of the moderate rodent.......feel fear......tremble at my power.......

This is my impression of Twitter.
NO comments on that link (or PT2) yet?!!?

I think that it captured the whole Twitter experience perfectly.

If a comment made in Twitter is referred to as "tweet," does that make one who tweets a "twit?"
