also nobody actually cares about phone size as long as it fits in a pocket or something. cases are good since i see a lot of vaginas drop their galaxys/iphone because they have less iq and slippery hands (cuz theres (my) cum on them)

on my ap bio test in high school the last essay question was to describe inter-cellular communication and even though i knew the answer i could not resist the opportunity to write "cells communicate with cell phones" (which were just starting to become common at the time)

i still got a 4/5

If you don't work in some kind of labor related field I don't think you should be proud of your destroyed phone because all you're saying is that you're so clumsy you can't handle not loving up a tiny rectangle

You can't pull rank on murder.

I must be some kinda weirdo because I've had the same phone for three years without breaking it and I put it in a $2 cover thing from DealExtreme.

Phone cases send the message that you do some sort of manual labor that is likely to cause damage to your phone and that if you broke your phone you couldn't easily afford to replace it. Say no to phone cases.

Exactly.

Having a phone case is basically saying, "I work in the fields and have the dexterity and personal responsibility of a child so I need to protect this thing from myself."

that's bc you don't fetishize new tech and therefore lack the subconscious desire to destroy your existing phone allowing you to upgrade asap

I put a smartphone (HTC Hero) through a wash cycle and it still worked. No damage except for some scratches on the metal bezel.
I never put a screenprotector or a case on a phone and none have broken yet.

I drink and do active stuff outdoors, thus I use a phone case. I feel this is a reasonable explanation. :cheers:
