So I got my first cell phone

What a coincidence, my dad gave my sister a phone just yesterday.

I can understand your point. I think it's pretty stupid for some ten-year-old child to baawww because his parents won't buy him a cell phone when every other kid in his class has one.

I don't even have a cell phone...

But I don't need one

There's a remedy for that. It's called an asswhooping.

Wait, how the **** did this get to four pages? Anyway, I don't use it much, but it could be handy it some situation.

What am I not considering?

Enlighten me.

Also, I see what you did there, but you're not getting away from owing up to your insults that easily.

get a jaerb

falling in a pit is an accident

you know?

accidents?

like situations that happen without warning?

what if your arm broke? yeah have a good time climbing out while others with cell phones dial 911

also, just imagine how people survived 200/100 years ago with no internet, cars, electricity and other conveniences

protip: you don't need a ****ing phone or other things to survive, but they sure do make your life easier



tl;dr go back to arguing school

I have a green samsung to is urs a slider?

Cool!

If you valued your safety like I do, you'd look where the hell you're going.

They survived just fine. Look at the Amish people who do not use electricity or cars. They make a living by growing and selling their own crops. That's some piss-poor reasoning, dude.

Not really. My grandparents got along just fine without a cell phone, and I rarely depend on cell phones because I try to prevent or avoid such situations or conflicts from occuring.

I find this to be funny because your "argument" was extremely poor and does not convince me to get a cell phone. Again, you posted the pit scenario, which is very uncommon and does not happen everyday in the severity that you meant.

I found it oddly funny that this topic was right next to the one of the girl sending naked pictures of herself to everyone on her cell phone...

1. yeah damn that unlucky driver who had an accident because it was dark and she got hit by another driver who wasn't being careful; just because you're careful doesn't mean nothing bad will ever happen to you

2. yeah they survived just fine. nice to see you agree with me on that while we have tons of tech today to help us out we don't really "need" it

3. protip: you don't need a ****ing phone or other things to survive, but they sure do make your life easier

4. i'm not a phone salseman, i wasn't trying to get you to buy one

lots of accidents and danger scenarios are uncommon; that doesn't mean we shouldn't prepare for them

so i don't need a cellphone because falling into a pit is unlikely, does that mean we should remove the medkits from my classroom because the chance of a earthquake happening is unlikely too?


tl;dr: go back to arguing school

just wait until someone tries to assault you when you don't have a cell-phone, then you'll be sorry dude

the only reason we're trying to convince you about this is because a.) we're worried about your safety here, and b.) you're not giving any other reasons as to not liking cell-phones besides "hurr I don't need one becuz hoem fone" which sounds extremely arrogant

...
Stop arguing and call that number.

1.) Maybe if she turned her goddamn headlights on and didn't go at excessive speeds, she would not get into such a preventable

Again, not really. My life is pleasurably easy, and I rarely use a cell phone.

Well, you're certainly trying to prove how necessary they are in today's modern age!

True, but cell phones aren't always

Medical kits are needed for the safety of students in case of an emergency (ex: earthquakes, fires, tonados, etc.) Cell phones are banned in most public schools because students tend to send text message or get a call during the educational process, causing disruption and a lack of learning. The cons outweigh the pros in that particular environment.

Yes, cell phones are handy dandy tools to have socially and in the case of an emergency, but you aren't going to die a horrible death if you do not possess one.

i hope you realize that you're pretty terrible at arguing.

Not if you find it on a sidewalk next to a dumpster :3

Not the use of the words "other driver wasn't careful." This could include drunk driving - upon which if the guys too drunk to be driving, and you're in his way, and something goes wrong completely on his end, like he goes through a red light while you've got a perfectly safe and legal green light - you're screwed, even though you were doing everything as safely as possible.

Why should you care anyway? Why am I not allowed state the truth as to why I do not need a cell phone?

You are blowing the issue out of proportion. It's just my personal preference. Ignore me and move on with the thread, or I'll report you for violating the stupidity rule.
