OK, i'll take the bait.

OK, i'll take the bait. To use the outhouse analogy, i actually prefer the outhouse, because i get a bit of fresh air and exercise on the way, and there aren't kids and flatmates bothering me through the door while i'm having a crap, and.. no, the analogy is broken. I could perhaps afford an iPhone what-have-you (even though i am a poor PhD student -- maybe you have a point), but i genuinely like the fact that my phone lasts really long between charges and that i am not even tempted to have FaceApp or TwitBook, etc. If my life was arranged a little differently (read: more stability) i wouldn't even have a mobile at all, but for the moment i can't rely on having only a home phone.
