Ungh

The jailbreak for iOS4 (Iphone) isn't out yet which means everytime I get a new text message on my phone I have to close the app I'm in (which takes like a million seconds) to read and respond to it. This afternoon I was busy harvesting crops in Farmville when I got a text. By the time my farm reloaded after responding all of my raspberries had gone bad and I couldn't harvest them!!! Seriously, like 10,000 coins down the drain!!#@%

Does A Walkie-Talkie Still Count As Technology?

My walkie-talkie doesn't clip into its holster solidly (yes, directors all carry around walkie-talkies at camp--ridiculous, I know), so it keeps falling out whenever I move faster than a walk, attempt to take two stairs at a time, or stop abruptly. Man, FWPs

My HTC Is Just Smart Enough To Fail

After 5 years of the same phone (which was used by 5 people before me including my father who doesn't have a cellphone and my grandmother) I finally went out and got a smart phone. It can do just about anything and it tries too. After signing into facebook and gmail on it, it pulled all my contacts from those sites and automatically added them to my contact list. In order to not have 2 to 3 listings for the same contact (one with their gmail, one with their phone number and one with their facebook profile--profile pictures and statuses automatically pull to the contact) I had to go in and allow the phone to link each contact individually. To add insult to injury, I think there is a way I could have done it automatically, but given my distrust in technology, I didn't allow it to when I first turned on the phone and then didn't know how to go back and change the preference.

My Computer Is Too New

My new job got me a brand new MacBook but since it is the newest and most up-to-date model no one knows how to set up the standard office systems on it. Man, FWPs

Microsoft Works . . . Or Does It?

The computer in my office at camp doesn't have Microsoft Office. If my job were being described by a TV Guide sitcom synopsis writer, it would have to be said that "hilarity ensues" every time I try to open or print a Word document. Man, FWPs
