I slam it into vinegar and turn it into a risky bouncy ball

Yeah, I think that combined with the explodey factor really saved a lot of my mom's phones back in the day. In the absolute worst case scenario, there'd maybe be a bit of the corner gouged out if she dropped it on the road or something, but that kind of damage doesn't spread and you don't end up with glass shards in your finger if you try to use the phone anyway. Now I've gotta practically wrap the thing in bubble wrap to keep it working if it drops

I remember when my mom had a phone with a removable battery, she would drop it a lot and it would separate into a gazillion components but it wouldn't break. I miss the days

Unrelated but beautiful taste in icon, Grelle Sutcliffe fuckin rules

In that picture it makes her look like a cat from a PS1 game to me
