I have made up my mind, if I am ever asked out I will request that his cell be turned off while we are together.

I have had girlfriends whose cell bills got into the $400 range. They weren't using them for work either. I wonder if there is such a thing as cell phone addiction?

I have a friend like that, too - she's ALWAYS on the phone.

Tallgirlcolo said -- "The worst I've experienced was having a romantic dinner with my ex at this tiny restaurant. Maybe 10 tables -- all close together. The guy seated at the center table proceeded to carry on a complete, 30-minute business conference call on his cell phone - full voice for the rest of us to hear. "

If that had happened in my vicinity, I think I might have tried to make a big practical joke at it. As in -- discreetly ask everyone closest to me to start staring at the guy. Ask the waitress to ask everyone I couldn't actually get to without standing up. Act as though the guy is THE most fascinating person I've ever been around. At some point -- unless the guy has complete rectal inversion -- he should notice that everyone is staring. If he has the nerve to say, 'this is a private conversation' -- well, allrighty then -- you just start laughing at him & say, 'it most certainly is NOT. You've made sure that all of us could hear everything you've had to say! If this is a private conversation, then just take it outside.' Betcha everyone else in the dining room starts to laugh & clap.

The best cell phone conversation I ever overheard was at the grocery store. I was just strolling down the meat aisle, looking for some chicken, when I happened upon this couple who looked to be in their mid-40's. The husband was on his cell, screaming and yelling and swearing (I mean, liberal dropping of the f-bomb SWEARING) - and there were mothers and their young children right there - can you imagine having such poor class? Oh, I was livid for all the mothers whose children had to witness that man's boorish behavior (and who would probably say while strapped in their carseats during the ride home, "Mommy...what does mean?"). The guy was so angry he hung up on whoever he was reaming out. I made sure to give him a dirty look as he stormed past, his poor wife looking embarrassed as she followed him with the shopping cart...

I was in the GREATEST deli I have ever been to the other day. $8 gets you a 16 inch sub with an inch and a half thick worth of meat on it.....DRUUUUUUUUEL!!!!! I told him that he'll be out of business in 6 weeks because I discovered his place. Anything that's a great deal ALWAYS goes out of business.

Anywho, I fell in love with this place even more. Obviously its busy at lunch time and I'm waiting for the sub to be made. There was a guy behind me yapping his yuppy mouth off on business. The guy behind the counter looked at him and said what do you want. He kept yapping, so the guy behind the counter skipped him and took the order of the guy behind him and the guy behind him and so on. He stopped long enough to say "what the hell!" The guy behind the counter said "You missed your turn, back of the line." I was SOOOOOOO clapping and pumping my fist Arsenio style in my mind. I said to the guy behind the counter, I glad you have balls to say that becuase you made my day!
