I question your use of the word “need”. You left out apostrophes, capitals and proper punctuation. So apparently you don’t “need” proper grammar. I submit that you also do not “need” a cell phone in that you will not drop dead without one. You may experience an inconvenience of having to wait to tell your friend a vital piece of information about what another person is wearing. You may have to wait an hour or more to find out if Cissy really thinks Gil is hot! You may not ever learn what earth shattering wisdom has come from the, dare I say it?, vapid mind of Paris Hilton as you wait avidly for her next tweet. None of these things are vital to your health and well being. You would still, somehow, go on with your life. Notice that I do not address whether or not Cell phones are good or bad. It is not the technology but the use of which they are made and the reliance on said technology that is good or bad. Even Twitter is neither good nor bad. Stupid? Well look at it in this way. People have their phones set up so that they are notified whenever people whom they do not know have something banal to say about life. I believe that this in itself qualifies as stupid, but I don’t go around hassling people for this. I feel that stupidity is anyone’s choice, just a it is your right to refuse to learn to spell, capitalize and punctuate properly.
