Hand-me-down Phones

My Dad bought himself a new cellphone. I don't rly know what the name is 'cause I'm no technophile. All I know is that it uses one of those pen thingees and that you use to touch the screen or whatever. Since that phone can hold two SIM cards, he'll be giving away (I make it sound like he's a host or whatever,) his two cellphones.

He made me choose between (again, I don't know all the names of the phones) the one with the camera or the one with the radio. I chose the one with the radio. I figured that I can always borrow the digicam, anyways.

Hm, to be honest, I was never addicted to texting. Granted, I begged my parents for a phone back when I was in fifth or sixth grade but I never really got to the phase where in I would be so distracted by my phone that it'd be confiscated. And yes, I sometimes avail of the Unlitxt promo of Globe but I was never 'addicted'.

I know some (no, actually, A LOT of)people who socialize more in texting compared in real life. Weird. Maybe they find it easier than 'real life' because you don't rly have to worry about what you're going to say through text 'cause you can edit them as much as you like. You can analyze your text and if it can be perceived in some other way you want it to be perceived, you can edit it out. Maybe that's why people seem more friendly through text.

So if someone says that that person is friendly/nice/whatever because 'naka-text ko siya eh,' I don't buy it. Idk. I guess I have to know them for real to believe it.

Weird thing though. I don't find any trouble when I'm making friends in cyberspace. Haha!

Well, through text or in cyberspace, I have this excellent radar on who's being pretentious and who's the WYSIWYG type of person. So I tend to stay away from those I don't rly like to be chummy with.

Politically correct terms.

We were studying English today in our Review and in the test we took, there was a story about a mouse getting mugged and all that crap when he (?) went to the city. The story used all these politically correct terms that was really funny if you have a warped sense of humor. Instead of calling someone a 'convict', the politically correct term is 'an ex-client of a correctional facility'. XD Idk, I find it amusing. I mean, if I was an escaped convict and I get called like that, I'd be a bit pissed. Idk why.

So anyhoo, I searched for some other politically correct terms, and here's what I've found:

Alive - temporarily metabolically abled (The temporarily part was funny. XD)
Blind - optically darker
Body Odor - nondiscretionary fragrance (Imagine having to tell your friend that. XD)
Cannibalism - Intra-Species Dining (HAHAHAHAHA, IDK WHY BUT I SUDDENLY PICTURED A RESTAURANT THAT SPECIALIZES IN 'INTRA-SPECIES DINING.' WTF.)
Corpse - Permanently Static Post-Human Mass
Cowardly - Challenge Challenged
Dead - living impaired (HAHAHA, 'IMPAIRED' AMP!)
Dirty Old Man - sexually focused chronologically gifted individual
Drowning - aquatically challenged (Help, I'm aquatically challenged! I think if you said that you just wasted your breath. If you'd just say: I'm frickin' drowning! then you'd saveyourself the trouble. XD)
Full of Crap - fecally plenary (Magamit nga 'to kapag nangaaway. XD)
Gang - Youth Group (Son: No, Mom, I'm notpart of a gang. I'm part of a Youth Group. Mom: Well, if that's the case ... XD)
Having PMS - cyclically challenged
Ignorant - knowledge-based nonpossessor
Insult - Emotional Rape (EMOTIONAL RAPE, AMP!)
Perverted - Sexually dysfunctional
Pregnant - parasitically oppressed


ETO YUNG PAMATAY EH! XD


Wife - unpaid sex slave
