"Does talking on a mobile phone in public make you seem cool?"

Everyone round where I live seems to think that talkng loudly on their mobile in public makes them look cool. Why - are we supposed to be impressed because they're talking to someone?!

Is their reasoning in that a normal conversation is just chit-chat, but a phone conversation must be something 'important' and crucial?

Or is it just me? Is it the fact that I use up my £10 top-up card in about 10 minutes making me angry that everyone else is talking?

For you see, some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, 'Why not?'.
Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that...not me, obviously.

Most people talk loudly because the signal quality is poor.

And they don't want masts near their residences incase their genitals shrivel up.

That's...actually a pretty good excuse. I feel like a moron now.

Could you edit your post and make it say something stupid for me to laugh at?

You really are stupid.

How funny is it when you see someone walking along nodding and going "yeah, yeah, totally agree" etc and then their phone rings?

Very.

Hibernatormongturdface - shut up. Despite the fact that this person has only been posting for 4 or so days, they've said things that are far more interesting and readable than any of the crap you've spouted ever.

Tanoy, your topics suck.

Maybe that's just how the communicate with the voices in their head that tell them to kill, Session 9 style.

It deoesn't make them look cool. They're already cool - unless thier phone isn't a camera/video 24x+ phone with polyphonic ringtones that cost a minimum of 400 pound, otehrwise you're just a skaff.
