“The HTC Smart is a compact phone that’s ready to help you be a smarter YOU and a funner YOU”
Better get one of these, then. Hopefully it come pre-installed with some jokes.
That ludicrous quote up-top is taken from another HTC lifestyle masterpiece, in which terms like “different moods in your daily self” and “fit your unique style and daily needs” are used in what appears to be a serious fashion.

Funner, but not funnest.

Funner? Fuck’s sake. Still want the phone, even if htc are increasingly looking like egregious Apple-wannabes.
Maybe it’s a typo. It’ll make you funnier. “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “An expensive telephone.” “Oh.”
Might not work.

Say ‘egregious’ in my company, I dare you.
January 8th, 2010 on 1:40 pm
Grrrr. This isn’t the first time either, is it? I forget who now, but hasn’t some other company used this ‘word’ too in the last year…

Mickey love… what does “egregious” mean?
January 8th, 2010 on 3:28 pm
Hey, what’s wrong with egregious? I think “conspicuously bad” is appropriate here, and the word has a fruitiness most pleasing.
Next comment I make will restrict itself to the would/wouldn’t dichotomy.

I want a fire engine.

I cannot be more funner. I am the funnermost.

this post is from a htc it’s not that fun.

I still can’t fathom the purpose of having a current weather indicator on your cellphone. In my experience, ‘looking around’ generally gives me a more accurate estimation of the weather conditions at that moment. Inside, I tend to use windows.

Enn, you’re obviously just a Luddite. Technology is designed to replace our natural senses and common sense. And what the hell are you playing at going outside in the first place? Isn’t your computer enough for you?
This country.

I’m still holding out for a phone to be called ‘Fucker’ simply because this will be the ultimate phone to have. I’ll even accept a phone called a Phucker to go with my phatphone. I could go on.
And probably will.

“fit your unique style and daily needs”
I’m somewhat intruiged by the question of what a phone would have to fail at to disrupt my daily needs.

I need to get a new phone, my trusty old 6230i is on it’s last legs. What would people recommend? Not bothered by iphone, htc smartphone or whatever. Want to make/receive a few calls/txts. Be nice if it had bluetooth, mp3 ringtones and a camera but more important that it’s cheap but built to last – most cheap phones I’ve seen appear to be built from balsa wood, polystyrene and sweetie wrappers, or at least feel like it.
What would you all recommend for someone like me who, like Enn, looks out of the window to check the weather and doesn’t want to browse the web or check emails on a phone?
Y’know, something that would fit my unique style and daily needs?
January 11th, 2010 on 10:08 am
Oh yeah, half tempted by something like this…
January 11th, 2010 on 12:09 pm
I believe this is just right for you

Oooooh, now that is a nice phone. and not likely to break when dropped or get easily lost.
How much is one of those, and how many hours talktime/standby do you get?
