Execute Order an6

Some of you may remember I posted an entry several months ago about how my phone is complete garbage. Well it's found a new level recently and this has been named 'an6 mode'.

Essentially if I try to type any word in a text message that starts with the button combination 2-6-6, like complain, complete or bonfire, the phone will think anything I want to type will start with 'an6'. So the suggestions I get, in order, are:

- an6e
- an6k
- an6sold

Any variation from this is not allowed. So typing the letter 't' after that would not work. The phone just does nothing. Also, I forgot to mention this entire process will cause the phone to freeze for up to two minutes (I checked) and when not frozen, slow down throughout the entire ordeal. The only way out of this is to delete the entire message, which it will sometimes do on its own, leaving just the letter 'k'.

There aren't any words to describe my feelings for this phone. At least it constantly surprises me. Just when I think I've seen it all, it finds a completely new way to screw with my mind and my text messages. And the most surprising thing of all is how many of these phones I see in Vancouver. Barely a day goes by when I don't hear the same ring tone or text tone (which isn't hard, there's only 6 and you can't upgrade them). So there's a tonne of other poor bastards walking around with this piece of crap. I can't believe the phone I had in 1999 is better than this one.
