I hate phones like nothing else. I have a mobile phone for SMS only, and get shitty if someone actually calls me on it (unless like, I'm in love with them. Then I might forgive them.)

I find the phone to be even more impersonal than email. With email at least you can show emotion with emoticons. With the phone you can't say shit like "smiley" after you make a joke, so when the other person misinterprets something problems happen.
