Why do you hate the phone?

Apr 05, 2007 15:08

It seems like many people on my flist (of those who have my #) dislike using the phone, so I thought I'd do a little survey. How do you feel about the phone? Why? Does it depend on the person, how long you've known them, or other factors like who called whom? In short, explain yourself!

Only a small minority of my friends use it, but I like the phone. I love conversation and it's much easier for me to talk than type, much easier for me to make myself clear in voice than in text. I also think the phone is much more sensual, seductive and romantic. There are a few people I know whose phone voice and manner adds a whole new dimension to their appeal, compared to text. (They're all submissives, and I'm not sure that's a coincidence.) I talk to most of my friends via IM and email, but there's still a special place in my heart for the few who like the phone as much as I do.

[Edit: I wonder if I like the phone because I used it so much for long distance friendships and relationships before net access was widely available?]

[Edit: Fixed the title. Why does my brain hate grammar?]
