a phone or small tablet fits in your pocket, a laptop does not.
It must be odd to think that everyone else is out of step.

Much more easily than that ****ing great
dinosaur that you lug around with all the
other dinosaur **** you lug around with it.

I was a bit sceptical about how viable it would
be as an ebook reader but in practice its fine
and rather more convenient than the paperback
I used to use in doctors waiting rooms etc and
vastly better in the sense that I have hundreds
of books available in the phone that is much
more convenient my pocket than the paperback
ever was. And I can do everything else I need
to do with the phone too, navigate anywhere,
listen to podcasts when walking or just waiting
for something to happen, pay for everything,
research anything etc etc etc.

They should use the proper tool for the job


They do.

as my Dad keeps telling me


Clearly yours is a genetic problem if he really is your dad.

When I was 14 he would shout at me if I used an adjstable spanner instead of a ring spanner as he tried to show me how to rebuild car engines, but I was a poofter that wanted to study science instead.

I'd say it excellent to be out of step with Mr Mason. Essential for
survival is more likely.
