Back from a watery grave?

[jchrisobrien]

As of right now, my cell phone is still working.  I can call and receive calls on it.  There are a few drops of water on the inside of the screen, and it flickers from time to time.  oh.  oops!  We just lost the screen.  Now there's a hissing noise.  Now its flashing at me.  This can mean one of three things.

1. My cell phone is picking up transmissions from an alien space ship.  I need to hide in a closet and fashion a hat made out of tinfoil, keeping several bottles of water nearby.

2. My cell phone has returned from the dead, but in a zombified state.  Continued use puts me at the risk of having it eat my brains.

3. My cell phone is well and truly dead.  Don't bother calling the insurance company back to cancel my call, just wait for the phone to get here tomorrow and send the old one back.  Let them deal with the zombies and aliens.

1. Never a bad plan
2. But if it eats your brains, you will be a zombie too! RUN AWAY
3. /shrug. Maybe I should wash my phone so I can get a new one that doesn't suck.

1. You can never have enough water and tin foil.
2. "Can you hear me now?" "BRAAAAAINNNNZZZZ" "Um, good."
3. I'd only advise it if you have insurance.

delegating your problems dealing with zombies and aliens to some impresonal, faceless corporation is not the manly thing to do. be a man. bash their heads in yourself. I recommend a cricket bat.

Zombies I can handle. Aliens are more likely to have tentacles or superior technology, and I'm ill equipped to deal with them. I can't count on them being as lame as the ones in Signs. Faceless corporations have goons, and R&D labs, and a budget. They can take on the aliens.

ahh . . . I thought you were just referring to grays and blues. those tentacled monsters can be difficult. you'd have to get yourself some manga superhero to deal with them. maybe you'll get lucky and one will move in upstairs.

Well, keep that thing away from your ear. Just to be safe. Don't want to give it easier acess to your brain.

It's back in the box it came in. I... wait. The box just moved. It's moaning something.

*reaches for a bat*
