5 Cell Phone Mistakes For Grown Up’s

July 19th, 2010 in Life by 38 Comments

I don’t call men, so I don’t care about what they do on their phones. This is strictly to the ladies, about the ladies, and for the ladies. Preferably those 21 and up; heck, let’s say 25 and up. There are some things that adult women do with their cell phones that makes me question their maturity and professionalism. These are the same women that often tell me to “grow up,” all the while they are acting like 14 yr-old girls with their newest smart phone gadgets. If you’re guilty of one of these things, you’re just a normal person…but if all five apply to you, stop trying to live like you were born in the 90′s. Let us begin…

5. SIGNATURES
.:*&$% THE BADDEST BISSSHH %$&*:. Stop it, PLEASE. You’re not Trina. When you’re someone’s mother, it’s time to stop calling yourself a “bad bitch.” When I see stuff like this in a woman’s signature (notice I said woman, not girl), I begin to question how her mind functions. It has to be atleast 45% easier to have sex with women with signatures like that…ok, maybe not.

4. PENIS PICTURES
If you have pictures of various men’s baby making devices in your phone and you let me look through your pictures, YOU AIN’T SHIT. Furthermore, it makes you look like a hoe. It’s not the fact that men sent the pics, it’s the fact that you have saved them and made them the caller ID picture. Definitely a hoe move. *If you just have one dude (husband, man, etc..) then there’s nothing wrong with that.

3. CALL TONES
No. No. No. I don’t want hear Gucci Mane when I call you. I like that good ol’ fashioned **RING**. You are not a business that is putting me on hold, so stop with all the complications. I can’t believe grown women spend $3 just to have some music playing when someone calls. However, I must contradict myself and say I love that when I call my “Chicago Fantasy” and Alicia Keys’ “I’m Ready” plays just for me. Ok wait, let me take that back. Call Tones are ok, when they are for specific contacts. My problem is with women who have call tones for anyone who calls their phone (general), meaning that if your district manager calls your phone, they have to hear the latest verse by Rick Ross.

2. “Who Is This?”
Have you ever called a woman and she answered the phone with “Who Is This?” If so, RED LIGHT. Call your mother, grandmother, supervisor, manager, or any grown woman that you respect with a phone number you know they don’t have, and I guarantee you, they don’t say “Who Is This?” They’ll say hello first, or whatever greeting they say, followed by “may I ask who this is?” or something of that nature. There isn’t a single person who is getting grown up money who would answer their phone that way. I couldn’t imagine having a HR manager call me back and I answer the phone that way, can you say…continued unemployment.

1. Voice Mail Tricks.
This doesn’t mean you’re young, it just means you have annoyed me. I called a 22 yr old about 4 days ago and after a few rings, it went to voice mail. “What do you want?”, followed by a pause long enough for me to give an answer. I’m talking back to the voice mail like it’s a real person on the phone. After the voice mail continued to hoe me for 10 seconds, she finally came on laughing…”I’m just playing, leave a message.” I started laughing, but then I thought, this girl only has one phone line and you never know what type of life changing phone call you can receive. Bad Move.

Lastly, and this is just a bonus, don’t call my phone if you’re having ongoing conversations with the people in your background. It’s tacky…and STUPID. Just wait to call me until you’re free, preferably in a quiet area, away from your ghetto ass cousins and friends. That is all.

What is something you hate that people do on or with their phones?

Wow. That first one literally made me laugh out loud. I see it all the time. And this is just as a sidenote… I hate it when I see that ish on FB! “Kiara BISHDONTYOUWISHYOUWASME Johnson.” Really?! Wow. But in that situation, and in the other ones you stated, I always think like who does this ish.. Seriously. Also one thing that I can’t stand it when people stop and sing out loud to the ring tone they have everytime their phone rings. So not only am I hearing Teairra Maris “sponsor” but I’m hearing some dumb ass female on top of her running around talkin about she needs a sponsor.

lol, I’ve heard women sing their ringtones before, but it has never bothered me. I guess we do a long of things that aren’t appropriate for adults to do (I know I do), but in general (besides the way people may dissect my relationships with women), I think I’m pretty mature in how I present myself. Then again, I walk around in hooping shorts, white t’s, and sneakers like I don’t own a button up.

I loved this post! Had me laughing the whole time. You were so on point with it ALL…gotta agree. I actually like the call tones though, but haven’t added one just because I didn’t want them playing for everybody. Now that I know you can add to certain contacts, I might consider it. As you stated, it can potentially be a BAD move because you never know who’s reaching out.

Nice piece…

5.Signatures are so cheesy
4.No comment
3.I can honestly say I don’t know any females who do that, only dudes
2.OMG I never thought about that, and then like saying who is this kind of gives away the fact that YOU KNOW who it is, because normally you just say hello
1.They used to be funny, but I rarely fall for them anymore 
I don’t like when people have pictures of themselves on their phone wall and I know people can’t really control it, but I hate when people have their phones on stupid vibrate and when it goes of it scares the hell out of you.

I can honestly say I’ve never done any of the 5 and I’m 19. First off who does the signature thing anymore? If you say your the baddest itch shouldn’t you display it rather than constantly remind people of what you supposedly are? The picture of body parts has never been my thing. Yea guys have sent me pictures of body parts before but I see it as if you seen one you have seen them all so there’s no point in saving one or all of them in your pictures. The call tones bug the hell out of me, if I wanted to listen to music I’d listen to my zune and plus it is definitely not professional. The voice mail tricks is so childish. Oh almost forgot the “who is this” when answering the phone shows they have no home training. Saying hello isa habit even when I know who the person is. Sadly all 5 things both men and women do.

I’d have to agree, I’m a 19 yr old female and found just about everything you’ve mentioned to be true. One more thing to add to your list, the way people spell when they text. Sure short words are good and efficient, allowing more room for what you have to say, word like “cnt, k, gtg” but at the same time when someone “T@lk$ LiK3 Di$”. Is annoying, REALLY shows maturity levels and kindof makes me want to strangle them. (=

Aw man! I can’t stand ring-back tones! yes, when they are part of an inside joke or special occasion just for me, bring it on. Otherwise, I prefer to hear that old school ring ring ring. I also hate the background conversations. when i pick up and say “hello” if the other person is talking to someone else I hang up.

Not guilty of anything on the list….. YES! My phone isn”t that big of a deal to me it”s always on vibrate because i’m always at work. Anyway, I HATE when people play the ringtones/ music on their phone out loud in public places or talk on speakerphone in public.I also hate when you text someone and they reply “WHO DIS” or they use so much “texting lingo” you can’t read the damn sentence.

I hate mostly all these things. Only thing I can semi disagree on is signatures on phones IF it’s just the persons actual name. It keeps me from getting texts from people who aren’t saved in my phone and having to wonder who it is. If I don’t talk to you that much I’m not goin to bother saving your number in my phone so that helps me out. Caller tunes, ugh. You will forever be a rat if everyone who calls you has to listen to plies before they talk to you. I hat stupid voicemail tricks. To be honest I don’t even like when people speak their own voicemail message. Keep the default one that just says your number.

my current voicemail on my real line is very rude and I can’t figure out how to change it back to the default one. It’s not ghetto or anything, just…rude. I completely agree with you about not storing numbers, but then again, I have 3 different “phone books,” I can just type the number in the other data sheet and find out who they are.

From the loud ringtones with cursing in them to sitting next to me and speaking loudly. I dont want to hear your conversation. How are you in a public place with “gucci man” ringing? SMH Signatures, Ringback tones are just annoying to me. The fowarded messages and for people with Blackberry’s the BROADCAST MESSAGES, that irks me. Why is my phone vibrating because you sent me some tacky fowarded message? Some people need their cell phone privileges taken away

You can tell when one of ny coworkers get a new ringtone. Somebody calls and they let it ring and ring and ring and they know damn well they hear it. They want everyone else to hear it. Its almost two years later and this trick in the next cubicle still got Beyonce singing “At Last” as a ringtone. Everytime i hear it i wanna commit random acts of violence.
