i agree. regarding phones though, i hate the "call me" voicemail. geez! just don't leave me a message at all if that's all you're gonna say! . . . tell me something, like "i'll meet you at 5 pm instead of 4" or "meet at the __ restaraunt instead of ___" not "call me" WTF?

I rarely answer my phone.I check to see who's calling before answering and if I feel like talking I'll answer, if not, I simply don't answer...which is most of the time because I just dont like talking on the phone.

That's why I love callerID. If I don't want to talk right now, I don't answer.

I never answer the phone. I screen everyone equally.
I am one of those annoying people.

I think what they REALLY mean is "I don't want to talk to YOU"....
I hate this, too. But for ME, nothing ranks higher than food/gum smackers. GROSS!
