Phone party

I would say that this fear of not hearing the phone is a bit exaggerated, for even a semi deaf person is able to hear the sound of the most popular pop-rock sound on maximum volume along with the vibrating hum. There is a wide-spread tendency to set songs as ringtones, the more drilling to your years the better. So when suddenly your heart stops when riding by bus from downtown at 12 at night upon hearing a bass and monotonous beat of the some techno hit (to avoid which you just left the club), don’t worry, you are not about to be attacked by an arse, it s only this 14-year old girls with 10 piercings in her face that is being called by her mum. And you were concerned to quiet down your Mozart ringtone not to shock fellow passengers.

Phone, as we all already accepted, is not only a communication tool. It is a source of music. But, contrary to the regular way of wiring oneself in headphones, here people just play local love hits aloud, for the delight of the bus passengers. For if anyone objected, they would just shout to the ‘dj’s’ to shut it down. In addition, there is usually a camera in this marvellous portable phone invention, called here a pelefon, i.e. a wonder phone. And, combines with the fact it can be taken anywhere ... the amount of blurry pictures uploaded to the internet from this area of the world is indigestible even for the vast resources of the world wide net. For of course it is the best idea to perpetuate one’s red, half-drunk face while smoking a 3rd cigarette in a lousy bar. Just so that your future children would know why they are disabled.
