NEVER... EVER...

[ragingbullchick]

... flush a toilet (in a fancy resturaunt) while your cell phone is on a clip on your belt. I just did that today in a resturaunt and I lost my $99 Nokia phone that I only had for like 3 or 4 weeks. I'm bummed. It was funny to see it get sucked down there. As I was flushing, the phone dropped in and started swirling around, and I wasn't gonna stick my hand in there and fish it out for the life of me. So I made a call to my Dad on my friend's cell and I told him "Um... Dad... you know those gift cards I got to the mall... yeah... well I'm gonna spend them on a new phone... okay?" When I told him what happened, he was mad, but cracking up at the same time!

Thats hilarious. I would maybe stick my hand in IF it was a #1 and an expensive phone. But if it was a #2...

Nice!

Eh, if the phone was on chances are it died the moment it hit the water. Phones don't handle water well. They have a little water detection patch on the back of them (most new phones do) that will change color if it gets wet so that your phone carrier will know it did get wet.

^I dropped my phone outside in the school parking lot after a late rehearsal back in October. It rained all night and was found the next morning. I opened the screen and there was obvious moisture but it worked fine. After about 2 days the moisture inside the screen evaporated (God knows how) and now it looks the same as it did the day I baught it.

Mine lasted three trips through the washing machine and dryer. The screen sucks though.

My dog chewed on the antenna of my cell phone and I sometimes get a bad signal. I'm too lazy to replace it though.

My friend was at his aunt's house and him and his cousins (there were 3 cousins I think, if not, then defenantly 2 cousins) were in the basement playing pool. Now their basement is screwed up (he invited me over there a few days after it happened). There is a toilet just sitting there, connected to a wall, but no walls around it. So everyone can see you going to the bathroom. So anyway, he was talking on his mom's cell phone while going to the bathroom (#1. Had to share that because that is how the story accually gets funny). So he was talking and one of his cousins pushed him a little and he dropped his mom's cell phone in the toilet.

It was just #1 (sorry, I kinda had to share that to answer EagleFan's question) but I still didn't want to stick my hand in there. Even though I loved that phone so much! It was a Nokia 6101, and I only had it since... a little after Thanksgiving. It was an awesome phone, I'm gonna miss it because it worked so great.


Now I'm wondering... what happened to the plumbing in that resturaunt?

Raginbullchick- we had the same phone. Are you getting the same one?

[ragingbullchick]

^ Yeah, I thought I told you to get it. It was an excellent phone. But I think I'm just gonna get some $50 Motorola camera phone and buy a new case for it. There's a ton of specials going on until December 31st. I think I'm gonna get the new one tomorrow.

[msoeagle]

^ Yeah you did tell me to get the phone, I love it!

I have a razr, alot of people think its super fragile, its some what durable. I've dropped it kinda hard like 10 times, still in perfect condition. I dont think I'll use it in the toliet though, stories do have lessons that help others.

^ I got a new phone yesterday, and my boyfriend paid for it (it was a Christmas present since he just came back from out of town). He has a RAZR, and begged me not to get one because it's a piece of crap. So, I got the same phone again (Nokia 6101) and a Happy Bunny case for it!

Mine made it into my coffee cup yesterday morning... it's ruined. It's the Sanyo 8300 and I love it. I have pictures and videos on there that I can't get to now bcz most of the buttons are not working. I'm going after work today to pick up another one from Sprint store. There goes another $279 before the wedding... AGH!!

I lost mine in the fall at a cemetary. I saw a gravestone with the name Emily Rose on it and when i went to take a picture, i dropped it in the sewer drain along the driveway. It had to be probably the only sewer drain in any cemetary in the whole world and my phone found it.

I lost my cell phone twice and retrieved it both times. The first time I was at a carnival. It was in my pocket and we were on the Super Sizzler, and it fell out but I didn't know it. So me and my boyfriend get into a small argument along with my friends, and then since I was so pissed off I wanted to see what time it was, or I wanted to call somebody maybe. So I reach into my pocket... and I'm thinking OMG MY CELL PHONE! I screamed SO loud and I didn't care, hahaha. I ran across the carnival and went by the shops cause I thought I left it there... nope. I called it from a stranger's cell phone to see if anyone would answer it. I then went to Super Sizzler and asked the guy if they found a cell phone. He asked me what color it was and when I told him he said Yep, we've got it! I started jumping for joy. I felt so scared when I lost it cause I thought it was gone forever.

Then, when guys were working on the streets in my neighborhood, I was walking to my bus stop one morning and it fell out of my pocket and I didn't even know it. Thankfully one of the construction workers found it and returned it to my parents.
