Technology sucks.

Normally I hate when people say they have problems with technology, because it's almost never the technology's fault. Mostly PEBKAC. But sometimes, there really are actual problems with the technology. Crazy, right? Like my phone. MY smurfING PHONE. Here's a quick list of the things my phone does that piss me off to no end:

1. Sending messages to the wrong people sometimes. if I reply to someone, or start a new message and choose who to send it to before i type my message, halfway through typing my phone will change the person I'm sending it to. If I don't choose who I'm sending it to until after I've finished typing the message, sometimes my phone will send it to someone else anyway.

2. Taking messages out of my drafts and sending them. Why, phone? Why would you do that? I was obviously not finished with that message. That's why it was saved. Or maybe I just started a text so I could quickly type in a note that I needed to remember for later, since it's quicker to do that then open my note-taking application, and saved it to drafts to look at later. Imagine my surprise when I get a reply from someone that I haven't texted in days, asking me why I sent them a short grocery list.

3. Restarting at random times. I don't get it. What's so important that you have to stop me in the middle of what I'm doing to start over? Are you having memory problems, phone? Sometimes when I pick you up, you're in the middle of restarting. Sometimes I'll try to paste something I copied earlier, but you no longer have it saved, because you've restarted. Do you just not like me, phone? I've tried to be good to you. I've had you for five years, phone. We've been through a lot together. Are you disapproving of some part of my lifestyle? Just tell me, phone. Don't be like this. I thought we had a more open relationship than that.

4. Pretending it's always fully charged. Don't be like that, phone. If you need to take a break, just tell me. That's what the charger is for. Don't overwork yourself, phone. You can't just always pretend everything is alright. Everybody needs help sometimes.

5. Calling people at 3 in the morning. Just because I'm awake doesn't mean that some girl whose number I got two days ago is awake too. I don't even know her well enough to call her that early, phone. You may have damaged that relationship beyond repair. Are you jealous, phone? Is that what this is? You know we can't be together, phone. You're a phone, phone. Please understand.

6. Changing the names of contacts and/or switching their numbers around. You're a dick, phone.
