Looser Pays intitiative is to revolutionise UK Mobile market
A group consisting of all major UK mobile operators today announced its intention to introduce a revolutionary billing scheme aimed to increase network air time usage. The founding members of this initiative are 3G Three, O2, Orange, T-Mobile and Vodafone agreed to cooperate closely on implementing the new billing technology that will be marketed as Looser Pays. The core idea is that the cost of the call will be billed to the party that hangs up first. Unlike the previously used system where the calling party i. e. the party that initiated the phone call had to be charged and as a result deterred many customers from initiating a phone call, now the party that disconnects first will be the one to bear the charges. This groundbreaking initiative is expected to increase combined total air-time of the founding networks roughly by 500%. Analysts estimate that this will increase the profits by the same value of 500%. Future administration and development of the scheme will be handled by an independent entity sponsored by all involved networks.

An added foot pedal controls the A, B button pushing to minimize activity. According to the article, "After extensive scientific study it was found that manipulating muscles in your neck for 10 minutes uses 64% less energy than waving your arms about like a lunatic." Indeed, after watching the demonstration video, I myself will order four or five — I'm sick of flailing my arms around like a chump. Don't forget to check out ThinkGeek's other offerings today including inhalable caffeine sticks, the 8-bit tie and the most amazing T-shirt ever."

It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
