Sorry to any of you who have tried to call my cell phone...my parents, yet again, didn't pay the fucking bill. There goes my credit some more...*sigh* And my mom actually had to gaul to say to me that she wishes I would just get a job so I could pay for it myself. This, after telling me for months that it's too much of a hassle. *grumble* So...I'm

My suggestion is if you can't pay the bill, don't have a cell phone... If the bill is in your name then it is legally your responsibility to pay the bill... not theirs.. they're doing you a service by paying it for you. I know you have no job and no car and that is the line of reasoning you are using as to why you cannot pay the bill yourself, but remember a cell phone is a luxury not a necessity.

Well, actually, the whole reason I got a cell phone in the first place was because they needed to be able to get a hold of me if I was out and they wanted me to be able to call them (without having to call collect) if I got stranded. So they're the main reason I got the damned thing. And when I get a car it will be a necessity in case the car breaks down or something. I don't really consider it a luxury when you're a small white girl who travels by herself...it's more of a safety precaution for me.

I have to second you on this. In today's society, cell phones are more than just status symbols, they're rapidly becoming a necessity. Try asking some C-store clerk if you can use the phone some time, dearie. Trust me.

It is NOT a necessity... You can still do all of those things without a cell phone... They could get you prepaid phone cards and a can of mace or pepper spray. It would keep you from calling collect and keep from tarnishing your credit. Problem solved. There is more than one solution to this.

BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!

Bah, you two need to think about what this petty argument is over. I mean damn, if I got into heated conversations with friends over such petty shit... well I wouldn't cause I'd walk away before it got to this point, you two are acting like two year olds, grow up and act your age, or at least think before you say something. I understand where both of you are coming from, but you're making a mountain out of a mole-hill. If someone doesn't like what the other one says, fine, don't like it, but no reason to blow it out of proportaion like this. This is lj after all, damnit, and I do acknowledge that you do have the right to say whatever the fuck you want to, but if there is something that's posted that you don't agree with, don't like whatever is in the post as far as content, then don't read it. It just makes me sick that someone as young as I am, and supposedly cause of that it means I'm immature, has to shine the light in your eyes, and be the mature one in cases of bullshit like this. Now I'm gonna shut the fuck up, leave work, and

I wasn't trying to argue with her...I was just pointing out how incredibally inappropriate her post was. It was rude, mean, and it crossed the line. I'm not the only one who thinks that either. I was picked on, bullied, and judged for a very long time when I was younger...so excuse me if I won't take as much crap from people now. I have a right to say whatever I want on this thing without being ridiculed by other people. I paid for this live journal. It's simple netiquette to let people vent and rant on their own blog. I was not starting drama, I was standing up for myself. I'm so sick of people accusing me of trying to start drama when I stand up for myself. Excuse me if I like myself enough to actually defend myself when I'm being publicly persicuted. Honestly, I could care less what she thinks of me. But I won't stand for someone talking about me like that cause they have nothing else to bitch about and doing it so publicly. There are people who read her lj who have no idea who I am who are being given the wrong impression of me
