1. Email: I use e-mail every day of my life, along with message boards like these and text messages.

2. Beer: I don't drink it costs to much

3. Newspapers: I still read the local newspapers i get them delivered

4. Cars: I have a car and my license = no problem there even though its a yellow getz

5. Landline phones: There is at least one of these in every major room in my house.

6. Cigarettes: I won't go near them, and I kinda stray away from people who light up in public

7. Desktop computers: I built my own desktop. I have another custom built desktop, and two laptops. 'Nuff said? :P

8. Television: I think I spend way too much time watching tv shows

Conclusion: I don't want to use Facebook; I don't even have an account

Yeah it's called humour (most certainly not humor!)
It's what us English do to reinforce our superiority over the rest of you! Haha

Oh i know, im used to what you say having double meanings, thus read a tad too much into what you said.
And pffft, you all are like a chiwawa barking on the neighbors yard.

Speaking of which, im moving to England for a year or two around September... Gotta say goodbye to the sun this summer.

1. Email: Hardly ever use it unless its for signing up for a website.
2. Beer: Not a fan of beer
3. Newspapers: I am honestly surprised that newspapers still exist.
4. Cars: I don't have my license, not that i can't drive but i just don't need it, and the amount i'd have to pay for insurance doesn't make me want to get it either.
5. Landline phones: Don't use one, but we have one just incase the power goes out and we need it.
6. Cigarettes: Never had one never will.
7. Desktop computers: i would always choose a destop over a laptop, if i wanted something portable i'd use a tablet or phone.
8. Television: I only watch about 5 shows on tv now, but that's only because its easier than downloading them.
