Re: What do you like to do the old-fashioned way?

I didn't have a working cell phone until maybe four years ago. I didn't like them, and resented the fact that the world was basically trying to force me to have one. But I gotta say, once I got a proper, decent smartphone, I quickly came to realize that not having one had been more of an issue than I thought it was.

Like, it's just limiting? For better or worse, cell phones are becoming a pretty vital part of modern life. And okay, maybe you're fine with not being able to look up what time that restaurant you want to go to closes while you're out, or use that 50% off coupon you got in you email, or figure out on the fly how to get some place you want to go, or amuse yourself on your phone if you have to wait somewhere and you forgot to bring a book. But in addition to all of that kind of stuff, the bottom line is that you probably have people in your life who would really appreciate being able to reliably contact you, or just text you a quick "you up for a phone call rn?" or "did you get home safe?" or a "<3" to show they're thinking of you, or whatever. I mean, I 100% support people who set firm boundaries about how they're willing to use their cell phone. But not having one is honestly a hindrance to modern living in a lot of small ways that can really add up.
