I’ve had the same dumbphone since 2008 I believe. Its screen broke shortly after I bought it, and it’s been broken ever since. My phone company keeps contacting me and telling me that I can get a new phone if I sign up for another twenty-four months, and I keep telling them that I don’t want a new phone.

About a week ago I dropped it and one of the four corners of the crack got indented, so it looks worse than it usually does. It’s happened before, and after a while the plastic has popped out again. I expect it to do so this time, too.
