Dear Dickensian 0 Soul, you are fettered by the chain you forged. Made link by link, and yard by yard; girded by your own free will, and wore such.

The repro-paradox which always makes me smile is...
as denim heads we will quibble about the most insignificant of minor details, we are overly concerned with the gage of rayon used for the tab and it's curling potential, the perfect shade of yellow or copper thread, puckering, roping, the intersection point of the yoke and even the period correct sewing machines used in their construction, we want our jeans to have the exact look and feel of a pair of period Levi's, yet we're fine with a cell phone fade.

Not my life Daniel, I hate phone fadez simply because i hate cell phones, i don't need/rely on one so i don't own one... we all just seem too intent on giving away our lives to technology, even my emails now prompt me with what google believes my response should be..
...all this technology would be wonderful if it freed up time we didn't previously have to engage with the people we love but i walked down a street of small restaurants on Saturday evening and all of the couples were ignoring one another because they were engaged with their phones. WTF!
Don't get me wrong, i think the internet is a wondrous thing (i use it daily) but its at home/work not in my pocket steeling my leisure time away from me.


If only he'd possessed a small measure of 00's foresight regarding the dangers of too much tech...  (Mine's a 10-year-old flip phone and has never entered my back pocket because it's too busy gathering dust somewhere in a drawer.  If you want to reach me when I'm not at home or the office, good luck.)

Double 0, if you really don’t have a cell phone, I commend you. Do you have a domestic partner/what do they think of that?

I’m glad to read responses that are accepting of the cell phone fade... but I think I do ultimately lie in the camp that wishes we didn’t all carry the devices as much as we do, but that’s not going to prevent me from carrying one (yet) and won’t stop me from putting the phone in my pocket.

Back pocket or shirt/jacket pocket. Hate phone fades but it’s not as noticeable in the back pocket.

^^
I have a basic £10 phone (made by ZTE) which i leave in the car, no internet, no touchscreen, battery lasts for 2 weeks+ i probably send and receive 5 or so txt/week.
My Mrs doesn't facebook, instagram, twitter ect but she is a level 40 Pokemon nerd so relies on a gps phone and numerous battery back'ups.
Ive never asked but i don't think she gives a crap one way or t'other, we both remember a time when nobody had a phone and the world kept turning.
