Who here absolutely hates talking on the phone?
I know I do. For me, if I'm on the phone for any longer than 30 seconds and I start getting irritated. Not sure why though. I'll talk if I have to, other than that, I avoid using the phone.

I guess it all depends on who you are talking to and maybe what you are talking about!!!!!!!!!! : |

My job requires me to talk on the phone for hours on end. I got a new phone last year, and I have talked on it for 500 hours already. I would hate to see my work's phone bill.

I hate phones most of the time because if the reception goes out slightly you start getting constant what was that?? What did you say??
It ИИИИs me. And it is all dependent on who it is and what the chatting is about. |

Mobile phones annoy me and I love them at the same time. Its weird. I like putting different ring tones on but then I hate having to hear them in public just to watch everyone turn around and look at me.
I also hate talking on the phone in the train. I hate people listening in on my calls. If i really wanted everyone to know what i was talking about, I'd get up and announce it via loudspeaker. Don't even get me started on mobile phone alarms..... :

Like what fiery said, depends on who I talk too, if it's a good/close friend or the ex (yes no bad feelings towards the ex) then I could go on for about 3-4hours before I start yawning, otherwise it's a quick phone call.
I hate sms! Mainly due to my mobile being an *** >.< the lag on it is ergh |
