1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.

2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.

3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.

4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.

5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.

6. You go home after a long day at work you still answer the phone in a business manner.

7. You make phone calls from home, you accidentally dial "9" to get an outside line.

8. You've sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies.

10. You learn about your redundancy on the 11 o'clock news.

11. Your boss doesn't have the ability to do your job.

12. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home.

13. Every commercial on television has a website at the bottom of the screen.

14. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or! 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.

15. You get up in the morning and go online before getting your coffee.

16. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. Smile

17. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.

18. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.

19. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.

20. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list.

Omg, my father used to do this when he first got his cell phone. Well, kind of. We'd be coming home from a hockey game or something and we'd be 10 minutes away. He used to call ahead to tell everyone that we were coming home. Drove me crazy!

That's just a weird parent thing. My mom calls me each and every time she mails a package to me - to tell me item by item what is in it. I'm gonna get the box in three days but she wants to call ahead and spend 20 minutes itemizing and describing each little item. Confused

I get in lots of trouble when I use my cell phone.
I get in lots of trouble when I don't use my cell phone.


#1) Last month's bill was not pretty by any means.
#2) My parents never know where I am until it's too late for them to force me to come home.

Oh, and I hate that phoning in advance thing. Although I do see some purpose behind it. (When to start dinner, preparing to leave when we get home, etc.) But other times, it's just annoying.

I actually did before I got to #20, because this is only the umpteenth list I've seen like this where it skips a number. Rolling Eyes

Still funny though! Laughing
