New irritation:
My wife's ability to keep destroying her mobile phone.
This weekend she managed to drop it down the toilet, and then piss on it.
So she's off to the apple store today.Comment

Apparently, after having children, when you need to go, you need to go. And the fact your phone is directly in the line of fire makes no difference.Originally posted by vetran View Posthave you stopped laughing yet?

Would I be correct in thinking she wanted an iPhone and you bought her something else?Originally posted by rhubarb View PostApparently, after having children, when you need to go, you need to go.

No she had an iphone 5 already.Originally posted by doodab View PostWould I be correct in thinking she wanted an iPhone and you bought her something else?
Most irritating part is, it already had a fault which she was going to the Apple Store for anyway, and hopefully they would have replaced it free of charge.
Now, given its water/piss logged, we'll have to pay for a replacement as the thing wont even startup anymore.Comment
