Can not say I give much of a shit about taking part in this beta testing, but I will have to say one thing: it is downright impressive that this app can work on this phone of mine.

I did not realize that apps could run on flip-phones, especially when the internet usually takes nothing short of fifteen minutes to load google. Regardless, I imagine the rest of you have your overpriced and unnecessary phones and other suchlike devices, but for the sake of sating my curiosity have any of you found this app on things that otherwise should not be able to run it?


[Yes, he typed all of that on his cellphone, his flip-phone dinosaur of a cellphone. So, naturally, all his replies will take quite the while to reply. Mashing the same button over and over again to get a single letter takes time, after all!]

understatement of the year
those things are practically indestructible
i bet they'd still be working after the apocalypse
commandertoolbelt: (let's be reasonable here)

okay i won’t lie i do have a smartphone
but yeah they don’t make cell phones like they used to
these guys can break in a stiff breeze if you’re not careful
but nokia lasts forever
somebody should tell jim that because they’re probably tougher than diamonds

they are pretty expensive so i get it from that perspective
and they can do some cool things but they’re still way too fragile

oh yeah i guess if you’re new here you wouldn’t know him
jim’s the guy who was talking to us before janet came along
he’s kind of a jerk though
like he keeps bragging about how it’s too easy keeping track of us and we should try harder to go behind his back and stuff
commandertoolbelt: (crazy no this is totally normal)

pretty sure that’s the point of advertising
but hey all the better for you

that’s putting it mildly
he hasn’t really given us much of a choice but to deal with him until janet took over though
and she’s alright i guess?
less crazy but still really vague about what they’re doing at retrospec or what they want from us
