Phone-y stories
Penthesilea:
I don't have a cell-phone. But my husband has and every now and then, I borrow it.
I sat with my friend in a café when we heard a cell phone ringing from somewhere down (we were sitting on a kind of indoor balcony, above the others, with great view of the whole café). The ringing went on and on, did even get louder after a while. We were both irritated that the owner of the cell phone didn't answer it. After a while, I said to my friend: "Why does this dumbass not answer his phone? It has the same annoying ringing sound like my husband's cellphone."
My friend asked: "It couldn't be that by chance, you have your husband's cell phone in your handbag?" - OMG, of course I did! The dumbass was me :laugh:. I am so not used to cellphones, that the thought never occured to me, it could be me whose phone ringed. And the noise came from somewhere down because I had put my handbag on the floor.

And of course my intent was not to make fun of someone who needs an assistive device. It's just that the incongruous picture of a woman with a great big "millwheel" ruff around her neck and a huge "farthingale" skirt tooling along on a motorized wheelchair strikes me as very funny. :-\
So does the image of a guy in full "plate" armor talking on a cell phone. ;D

funny cell phone stories.
Ok...
There was the time that I went to visit a friend. She was giving her 2 year old daughter a bath. Her house phone rang, and she asked me to watch her daughter while she got the phone. Of course, after mom had left, Sherridan decided at that moment to get a big handful of bubbles and try to eat them. So, of course, when I leaned over to stop her, the cell phone fell out of my pocket, and into the tub.
:o
Company wouldn't replace it because the phone still worked, but the ring sounded like it was muffled under a pillow.
>:(
Then, there was the time that I was walking through town, talking on my cell, and got so involved in the conversation, that I walked into a telephone pole. And apologized to the phone pole. lmao
:laugh:
