A good friend was suggesting we ditch our land line and just use our cell phones to make calls. Now, I don’t know about anyone else, but I can’t stand the way conversations sound on a cell phone. First of all, half the time the connection is so poor that it’s difficult to either hear the other person, or vice-versa. Secondly, I hate the way you can’t overlap talking. You do this, I do this… EVERYONE does this in normal conversation, and on normal telephones, but on a cell phone? Nope. You have to wait for a complete break in the other person’s speaking before you can get a word in edgewise. I hate that. Not that I like to interrupt people, but sometimes you might just want to agree with what they’re saying or maybe just elicit a long “nooooo…” to show you disagree so they hear it over what they’re yammering on about. Not on a cell phone, pal. And you know those goofy dropped-calls ads you see on TV? Well that happens to me quite often, too… on my cell phone. I’ve yet to have a call dropped on a land line. And then there’s the issue with them being just awkward to handle. They’re small, they slip out of my hand, I can’t stick them on my shoulder while I’m typing on my keyboard, etc. They’re fine to use when you’re out and about, to receive and make personal calls at work, etc., but aside from that, I rarely ever use mine. So I’m sorry if I’m being extremely terrestrial here but I don’t think I’ll be doing away with my land line anytime soon.
