So my roomate hates me now. Wanna know why?
It starts like this: back in March, my phone was stolen. Remember how some dick broke my jaw? Yeah, fun times. So because I was phoneless, my parents sent me one of their not-in-use phones, a basic old Nokia, nthing fancy but perfectly functional that I promptly fell in love with. Simple is my style.
My friend Jochi, who had just bought herself a BlackBerry, offered to give me her old Nokia, a touchscreen that I declined because I don't like touchscreen. at. all.
Then my roommate went on this trip to Europe, and she asked to borrow my phone since it was much more basic than her state-of-the-art LG touchscreen. I let her take it, because I'm nice, ocassionally. She then proceeded to lose it Edimburgh. She felt appropriately terrible, so she decided to buy me a phone to replace the one she had lost; this being a very new, very pretty Samsung smartphone. Touchscreen.
When she presented it to me I was appreciative and I told her I thought it was lovely, which I do. It's a beautiful phone! I don't like touchscreen but I could manage. This was about a month ago.
Today, my parents offered to buy me a BlackBerry. I was so happy, so I leapt at the chance. I told my friend Jochi about it, and then it turned out here was no availability, so i didn't get the BB. When I came home I told my friend Jochi through gchat that I hadn't gotten the BB. She asked if I was keeping the Samsung, so I said yeah, though it was kind of a bummer cause I don't like touchscreen. She says, but you like the Samsung, right? My answer: Yeah, it's great, but I'm a little tired of the touchscreen, you know?
Turns out she was my roomate in Jochi's phone. I don't know how, I didn't even ask because my roomma now refuses to talk to me.
I didn't tell her I don't like touchscreen stuff because I wanted to be nice.
THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS, PEOPLE.
Anyone's got any such embarassing, awful situations to share?
