Best thing overheard in a long time.

Over heard at: Doctor's office.

Characters: Guy about 45, receptionist.

Receptionist: I need your cell phone number

Guy: I don't have a cell phone.

Receptionist: Then, just give me your home number.

Guy: I don't have a home phone either. I have no phone.

Receptionist: You don't? How do you talk to people?

Guy: Like this.

Seriously. I'd rather travel to a place to talk to someone rather than talk on the phone.
Email or im is my next choice if at all possible.

I don't mind phones if I know who I'm calling and know that they like me. But calling strangers or having to call for appointments? Terrifies me.

Heh - I knew a guy like that once. Hated phones. Good on him. :D

I can't stand them either. I love talking to people I know or trust or love, I'd be willing to talk to you if you didn't live in ANOTHER FREAKIN' COUNTRY! :) But strangers, and appointments and business? I hate doing that stuff over the phone. Absolutely terrifices me.
