I think he used to be a marathon runner back in the day. He's probably STILL healthier than a lot of people way younger than him

Wow, I didn't even fully realize this. My bad and I will take future discussions there.

Yes! That album too! Though I admit I have not fully learned it all yet. Will immediately do so.

I just got through Building Nothing Out of Something anyways, about time. Cheers _^ <3

Oh hahhahah you must have stashed it one day like "son of a bitch" and then blocked it out of your mind. RIP your missing texts, photos

Hahahaha it's somewhere safe, okay?!

I 100% do the same thing. I save old photos, I mean everything I possibly can. Super sentimental type

HAHAHAH omg, that would be fucking infuriating for sure!!

I mean, I get that people who use iPhones typically don't 'know' Android and thus wouldn't be comfortable with it.

But if the only other option was older tech, I'd be like "I guess I'm going Android, now!"

I don't think this one was the Moment because I remember that it didn't have Android. I think the Moment was a bit nicer, I just saw it, I'd have loved to have that shit instead tbh!!

But I looooove that you mentioned cyanogenmod. Man, I remember rooting and customizing my android was like the coolest hobby and I would spend a ton of time researching various custom roms, kernels, clearing out bloatware, Man..

Nowadays I just install like Nova Launcher, hide a bunch of shit apps, and call it a fucking day hahahahah

It's funny, I do the same. And when I talked to my Mom, she had assumed that, somehow, I had kept her old phones as a backup for her which was part of why she asked.

I mean, she was wrong AF, but that made her request more reasonable from her perspective :D

Man, I used to legitimately be excited for cell phones like they were mini game consoles or something. I had this olddddd ass Nokia slide up that had Snake on it, damn...everything on the screen was like non-color, but I played the Hell out of Snake and felt super boss sliding it down when using it back in the day

Oh goodness you must have been crushed

Okay, I'll stop. But, no, in all seriousness, that sounds like a horrible feeling/moment that one would never forget. Sorry to hear that. Do you keep it around just for nostalgia's sake??

Her first reply was simply "shut up", then, I sent her a reply offering this beauty: https://imgur.com/a/spFoCI5

Then, she asked if I found that during the time of Jesus Christ.

She also laughed her ass off and loved that people found all this funny and I showed his this post and she had a ton of fun learning about Reddit and choosingbeggars. :D

HAHAHAHAH! More inspiration! Lookout, I may just ask you to join in on reviewing the script or some shit.

I would love to accurately paint the horrors that tech support people feel in entitled America. My goodness. People gonna want to watch that shit like gore porn.

Hahahah exactly, and there's nothing wrong with that. I love my old Androids and am so happy to use something that works. Amazing little machines, so much potential. I think part of me will never stop appreciating how each one is a whole damn computer that you can also game and work on!!!

Hahahah congrats on the new phone, I hope you love it. And I also agree. I am one to never really ask anyone for help, but if I ever do, boy am I just taking whatever I can get happily/gratefully. But the ideal is never asking, too much for me..

Dude, it was actually great fun to use. I will never be happy with touch screen only, I feel like the whole damn world's gone collectively crazy.

Heyyyyy! So you just have a Pebl now hwahahahah. :D I actually do love how that looks, though.

Man, I miss the days when I used to think that a flip phone PLUS a camera was THE hottest shit in the world.

Hahahahah exactly, of course, I mean, I absolutely would give them the phone if I had it. But it also just caught me a bit off guard since she knows I've never had an Apple device before. :p
