That's what Trump's fakey news angle is. It's not an argument. It's a ploy and I know it. Not having a cellphone insulates you from so much bullshit and I don't wake up in the middle of the night to check on my phone like you poor sleep deprived bastards. I do go pee pee though. :lol:

Not having a cell phone is a good way to not have friends, especially if no one likes your parents anyways. And no one checks their phone at night.

I can't believe it's not butter.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Now that is where I usually draw the line. The picture is usually a static filled mess. Even on those vaunted Gold Maxell VHS tapes. Piss poor investment there.
OTOH, at least you aren't using Beta. :lol:

It would actually be more of an achievement to have a functional Betamax player.

Uh... no. That's terrifying and also no one understands what I'm saying.

That's why they invented smartphones.

It was actually Bill Gates who saved Apple when Steve was about to go under with the company, screeching all the way down to inglorious bankruptcy.

Nah, they were invented for the older generation to keep us in the loop with the office. These were the first smartphones, I remember them well:

As a former teacher I can vouch for that. Now conform.

Maybe the way you're doing school, but that's not how it normally works.

Cellphones were only just starting to make an appearance at the very tail end of my school years, and even then they were massive bricks that could only make and receive calls, and only in very specific areas, usually on the top of a hill or something. Only one kid in my school had one. One kid. Out of thousands. One.

Wrong. I went to school once, yet I am very much undestroyed. Your argument is invalid.
