    Default stupid obsolete technology!

    So my VCR just ate my freaking VHS of Office Space.

    Do you still use any appliances or other such things that have been phased out by more advanced variations. I still make ice cubes in trays because I don't have one of those water/ice dispensers in my refridgerator, and I've got both an electric and analog can opener, but I prefer using the analog.

    I love ice cube trays. We have an electric ice cube dispenser, but it just spills ice everywhere, so the tray is just better.

    Ice Cube Trays, a fifteen year old microwave, a very old VCR, and quite possibly the most obsolete item in my house, a computer with Windows ME edition installed. But I don't use it.

    My office uses Telexes instead of e-mails....
    Parts for my car are rare.... even if it is *only*.... ten years old
    Does an NES and Game Boy colour count?
    Pray, Heal, Influence with Giant Hammer.... This is how white mages get their work done. You all didn't think those red triangles on my robe are there for good looks did you?

    A 15 year old microwave, that sounds safe We get a new one about every 4 to 5 years or so....

    Surprisingly enough, it hasn't killed me yet. If course, I don't touch it without a stick from three feet away.

    Thanks I needed that. You made me chuckle. Ive been attacked alot on here tonight

    Finally some one who doesn't have the stick up there butt ...but has it three feet away from the microwave and probabally about 4 feet away from there butt....well as long as the stick stays there I say to keep the microwave . Keep it your a better person with it.

    When your skin turns green and your hair falls out though I think Id stop trusting the old thing....

    I feel like I'm a dumb old person who is afraid of technology everytime someone hands me a [moderately] new cell phone.

    Well you're only 17. I doubt it's the fact that this technology in a cell phone is beyond your understanding. More likely it's just that you know that the technology in your hands was a generous amount of money and is very important to todays "cell phone prone, addicted society"

    When people are dying in car crashs because they couldnt stop themselves from using there cell phones in order to have focus on more important things in there lives. Such as driving safely...you know that we have a problem ....

    You know what sits on the throne chair of importance......
