A License to Suck?

Nokia™ is a trademark of Nokia.And from my own experience, and countless others', has not made decent phones since the nineties

Every single year gets more and more ridiculous as I have purchased four phones already in the past eight or so months, due to these fucking things just giving out, weeks after the purchase. And it isn't even like I'm goddamn Steve Irwin, the idea walking around the mall all day is vicarious enough for me. Anyway, I've always wondered why I keep buying 'em though. My last one, a lovely design, in theory (note, IN THEORY), the X3-02 which despite complications syncing with my computers and my hands being too big for the smallish touchscreen display, I slugged it out, which is a pretty big departure for me.

So, since I did (somewhat) like this model, I actually took the time and effort to bring it in for servicing when I could have just gotten a similar or even better one (again), which at the time, I wasn't inclined to do.

Long story short, the "After Sales Service" drove the final nail through the polycarbonate coffin and for that, I have nothing but thanks for the consummate apathy of the people at the "Service Center", plus I just made your fucking jobs easier by finally deciding to never purchase a mobile phone from you again.

One less motherfucker to worry about.

Not having a phone is quite liberating. I like it. Though of course, I will have to get another phone at some point, but until then, I'm happy. So fucking happy, I spent the last ten (or so) minutes making this goddamn license plate for no good reason. Thank you Nokia.
