LSD takes 90 minutes to kick in. I realize it was a joke, but... still.

There was an electronics store that really did something like that. Think it was Best Buy. They'd show customers the prices of certain products on their websites, only it would be a different version of the site with higher prices. All to convince the customer to buy the product in-store instead. Wasn't on a mobile phone, it was on their store computers. Still, pretty similar.

Hahaha. Hoping that was a joke, because otherwise that's the most ignorant thing I've read today. And I was just on Huffington Post.

Exactly. Especially with smartphone features like the Amazon.com app, where you can scan a UPC or take a picture of a product, and it shows you Amazon's (almost definitely lower) price for the same product.

I must have been thinking of a different study, there have been multiple studies on this subject. Either way, it confirms that cellphone conversations are more annoying than face-to-face, which was my point.

I'm sure that's true in many cases -- but I still think there are a lot more businesses out there jamming signals than we realize.

Cell phone conversations are more annoying to people because our brains keeps trying to figure out the other end of the conversation, and make the conversation seem louder. http://www.boston.com/lifestyle/health/2013/03/18/study-proves-that-overhearing-others-phone-conversations-annoying/tmCr9o4wDLm7dmGfdybnYN/story.html

Seems like a LOT of businesses do this, unless it's a coincidence that I lose service right after stepping inside tons of different stores.

We don't have a lot of options. It's either "vote for this d-bag" or "vote for this other d-bag," both of whom were picked out by the rich elite.

So their joke is making their articles completely illegible? This is ridiculous. Way to drive down site traffic while smarter sites are driving it up.

What about for the recipient of a modern hang-up? You don't hear a dial tone on cell phones when that happens, just silence. Kind of takes the bite out of someone hanging up on you.

Why brush your teeth before drinking coffee? That's like showering before a workout instead of after.
