    iPhone went for a swim physical laws broken.

    On the bowl, iPhone is in my front pocket. Flush n stand and pull pants up, hear clunkcrash behind me. Turn around, phones in the bowl which is still flushing but at the end, grab phone fast, its soaked, cant pull battery because apple asshead ideas, toss in bag of rice, flashlight is on all night buy its otherwise dead. Sigh.

    I review situation in my head and even if the phone was ejected from my pocket, it would have to slip by me and i fill every bit of the nook this bowl is in. Stupid bathroom design, welcome to philly. Point is, the phone must have installed iPhaseThroughMatter to get through my fat butt.

    I swear that sometimes I wonder if a Douglas Adams infinite improbability machine is running near by.

    Oh well. One less toy. Luckily I just bought an android a month ago. I never knew the term "god dammit google" untilI I bought an android. Mostly issues are centered around how you cant restrict app access to devices through the OS. Also why do they skimp on the ram?

    So is the internet meme is wrong and Asians really don't come fix your phone in the middle of the night?

    On a side note, you may not want to eat that rice.

    Girlfriend's daughter has dropped her iphone in the toilet 4 or 5 times in the last two years. Rice has worked every single time. Leave it in there for a week if you have to, eventually I think the rice is bound to work.

    Not to overlook any minerals that were leached out of the battery and circuit boards. Hey, isn't lithium used in some medical treatments?

    No poop on the phone, caught it mid flush. It almist went down the hole. I have the reflexes of a 15 yr old drinking mountain dew so i grabbed it as soon as i was able to ascertain that a, it was going to flush, and b, it was not poopy.
