    Because I'm clinically deaf.

    They're important.

    My phone has a torch, instead of a camera.

    Done it once or twice because the reception on the phone was crap.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I always find it's people in cars with the windows down that have phones on loudspeakers.

    people in their car who hold their phones up and use it on loudspeaker who seem to think that they're not actually using the phone so wont get penalty points. you're still using the phone while driving idiots

    My neighbour regularly sits in his car chatting with the phone on loudspeaker. I can hear the conversation in my room even if I close my windows. Why anyone would think this was an appropriate thing to do, or would even want to do it, I have no idea.

    Like other idiots, he probably figures no one can see or hear him when hea inside his car.

    And then they hold them in front of their face like walkie-talkies. Use the bleeding earpiece! Eejits.

    It's the poser who are all dressed up standing in a high street doorway pretending to be having a jockular chat with their make believe friends that gets on my tits.

    Had a colleague once who put every conversation on loudspeaker in the office!! The most annoying thing ever. His argument was so that he could work away while he was talking to the person. Because he was so important and busy!

    Know what you mean. The reception on the tv was bad the few times. Ended up leaving the microwave on for hours.
