Well....the plant DID have it coming. I mean she waters it and feeds it but does it EVER say thank you? Noooooooo.

Hedging her bets?

I see this all the time and so even after I realize it's a bluetooth thing, I continue to stand there and stare. Sometimes I'll pull out a little pad and pen and pretend I'm writing things down --of course making sure that they see me do it is all the fun.

Love this, and I am afraid the plant is damaged, like a like her kids who may or may not be grown, believe me they are damaged...

Actually I remember back in the day, which mine are numbered after 50, but your in the market and some person was quiet and intensely looking at the qumquats (I like saying that fruit's name he he) and suddenly they bark out some order and I think "What!", it scared the poo out of you, and still does!

a few years back, i'd been in the bathroom at the university, when a woman came in and asked, "what are you doing?" i thought it was odd, but said, "i'm pottying" cuz really, what would I have been doing? and a few seconds later, the woman said, "what are ya doing?" so i responded a bit louder, "i'm pottying!" and then I came out of the stall and went to the sink, and she asked again, "so what are ya doin'?" and so I said, "i'm washing my hands" and then as I was drying them, I heard her say, "there is a woman in here, acting like I'm talking to her." i snickered just as much at her exasperation as my own self not realizing she'd been on her cell. serves her right tho, why do folks use phones in the bathroom anyway?!?

I like Chris' comment and agree.

When cell phones were much less common, I had almost the exact same experience as Debra a few times-in the next stall:
"Hey what's up?"
"Uh, nothing-what's up with you?"
"What you doing?"
"...um...going back to work in a minute"
"Hold on baby, this idiot in the next stall keeps talking to me!"

And they say talking to plants makes them healthier, but cussing them out probably stunts their growth!

The plant was giving her the 'silent' treatment... "You NEVER listen to me anymore!" She wailed as the plant stoically stood its ground...

I hate rude cell phone use, but it does provide some ridiculous moments like this one.
