my new phone

Okay, so my new work phone sucks ass. The phone is so huge, it looks like one of those cell phones from the 80's. i think there are little elves living inside it that peddle the gears every time i want to make a phone call. Hooray for Nextel.
i tried to hyperlink a picture of my phone, but for some reason it won't let me. You'll just have to agree that the Nextel i58sr is an ugly ass yellow phone. that's right, they ordered it in yellow! WHY??????
Who even likes yellow? Oh! It's the people that buy yellow cars. Why? Because they are insecure, and need attention. Red is out people! Yellow is the new "it" color! I hate yellow cars! Especially those weird Subaru's that are the new version of the El Camino. The half car half truck. When were those EVER a good idea? Even the Ford Falcon hybrid thing is gross. The only thing it's got going for it, is that it's from the 60's and was never made again. But then someone has to go and try to build the hybrid car in the 70's. IT SUCKED!!! It seemed we skipped 1 decade (don't forget the Brat in the 80's) before some young punk decided that since no 90's model was made, 2000 seemed a good time to "invent" the hip hybrid for those trendy yuppie outdoorsy types. So then they make the ugliest car ever, and paint it yellow.
Gross.

Is that a breeder baby carriage they are putting in the back, or is it some trendy xtreme sport equiptment that fits their "BAJA" lifestyle? I can't tell.
Yeah. I really don't like my yellow phone.

The Subaru Baja is a niche vehicle, just like the Brat, El Camino, and Ranchero. All of those vehicles appeal to some people or you wouldn't ever see them around. The decade between 1995 and 2005 has been the decade of "segment busters". Examples of that are Chrysler PT Cruiser, Chevy Avalanche, and Chrysler Pacifica. The Baja fits into the segment buster category. It's considered a truck, but doesn't belong in the same segment as a Dodge Ram 3500. New segments have also been introduced, not to mention the re-introduction of hybrid power plants. Automobile design segments such as coupe, sedan, wagon, and truck are outdated and only apply to some production automobiles today. A Hummer H2 doesn't belong in the same segment as a Honda CRV or Scion Xb, but are they not both SUV's?

Personally, I think the Baja is a fine looking automobile. I wouldn't ever own one, mainly because it's foreign.

Too bad your new phone is big and klunky.
