Irving: My new 3GS phone launches apps two times faster! Cathy: Why do you need to launch apps two times faster? Irving: It does voice control dialing! Cathy: Why do you need voice control dialing?? Irving: Because when other people see it, they'll KNOW it launches apps faster and does voice control dialing!! Cathy: Ah...the "envy upgrade".

Then you’re just being a show off Irving. But you wasted your money if those things aren’t benefitting you any.

cathy, just call him up and say, “hi, fatso!” and hang up. i don’t care how much stuff your phone will do…..it’s a phone!

That would be the pot calling the kettle black.
and my phone is just that….a phone.

Doesn’t she do the same thing when she buys shoes? Make other women envious of her new purchases?
As for my phone, it’s a Blackberry Pearl, and the only reason I have that is because it was a FREE upgrade, and my previous cell was dying a slow and agonizing death. :)

It’s said that men buy expensive new toys to make up for other shortcomings.This would explain why they haven’t any children.
I’m waiting for Irving to leave the phone in a pants pocket and it dies a horrible death in the washer. :)

That won’t happen. He spends too much time hugging it

Who does he have to call or impress? He has no friends. He doesn’t work anymore. He doesn’t leave the house, except to go buy gadgets. He calls his sponging mother who’s sitting in the next room of his wife’s house, on his wife’s couch, and he calls his wife who just said she doesn’t give a …. about his stupid, useless, albiet faster app launcher.

Good point, funnyfan. And I’d like to see his overpriced phone get “the washer” too. BWAA-HAH-HAH-AH!
I think it’s a good thing they haven’t produced offspring. The world has enough neurotic sheeple as is.

I won’t have a cell phone myself. The only use I can see for one would be if I was out somewhere and my car broke down or something like that… and they charge too much for the things just for that use.

My brother just washed his cell phone on Saturday, and wrecked his car on Tuesday. I’m SO glad he’s not my son or my hubby!!!! (At least neither one was as expensive as what Irving would buy.)
