Top 10 Ways Phones Have Changed Us Since the 80′s

10. Everyone Plays Dress Up

Now people dress their phones up with sometimes ridiculous phone covers, and just like Barbie you can put on tacky fake diamonds with pink. What is worse is I have seen more men dressing up their phones than women.

9. Suicide Songs

Just as in the 80′s we had the one hit wonders like Ice, Ice, Baby, we now can upload even more obnoxious and shorter versions of songs to ring until we answer or put our phones on silent. Did I mention you might not just get annoyed, you might kill yourself?

8. Don’t Trip Bro

There was a time we had to have ridiculously long phone cords and often we would trip over them, sometimes even breaking or busting a body part in the process.

7. Calorie Savings

Because of the long phone cords, we often ended up buying shorter ones and actually have to walk to our ringing phones. Cordless and wireless phones now keep us from having to loose any valuable calories by enabling us to always have them nearby.

6.Modern Love

Ring, ring, ring …
Him: Hello?
Her: Where are you?
Him: I’m at work.
Her: I’m at your work, it’s closed.
Him: (Silence) + (Woman cough in background)
DOH!

5. Fire Alert

Firemen at the fire station no longer mistake a phone ring for a fire emergency.

4. Once Bitten Twice Shy

Guy from # 6 doesn’t answer his phone anymore unless he first reads the caller ID.

3. Schizophrenia

Now when you see a man talking (sometimes yelling) into thin air while walking the sidewalk, chances are he/she has bluetooth.

2. Treason

Now you can consult with the KGB via text over your phone for answers and not be put into a Federal Prison or executed by firing squad.

1. Too Busy

“No you’re not. I see you sitting doing nothing on the bench across the street right now.”
