Random Question of the Day

[Tenaar Feiri]

Exmouth in England, where my girlfriend lives.
That's quite a journey from Norway.

Chicago, about 4000 miles

With Germany pretty much sitting in the middle of Europe, I've spend most my time visiting our various neighbors. Traveled to the Netherlands, Belgium, France, England, Austria etc. I think the longest road trip I had was when we were visiting the County of Kladsko in Poland. That area used to be a part of Germany before the outcome of the second world war and it is where my relatives on my father's side are from. His parents had a farm there with my grandpa raising horses. The farm actually still stands (or stood when I last was there) and the people living there today where nice enough to allow us a short walk over the grounds and taking some pictures.

Distance wise it wasn't that much, the longest individual trip probably just scratching the mark of around 800km or 500 miles. But I got a pretty nice view of what surrounds me.

Shanghai and Nanjing for a week

I think Moscow is the furthest from home I've been, but I'm somewhat well traveled, only continents I haven't been to are the three A's

How often do you change (get a new) your cellphone/mobile phone?

[Aryn Gentlepaw]

Cell phones? Uhm.... that's those annoying little things everyone seems to carry around today and pull out whenever the attention briefly shifts to someone else?

Ahem, yeah, you can probably guess how much I love them. So... I have one but only because it sometimes really is convenient to be able to call someone when you are traveling, or be contacted. I get my mobile handed down from Athian usually. So my answer is: Never or only very very rarely ^^

[Ausar]

I am a creature of habit. Once I've grown to like a cellphone I usually tend to stick with it until one of three things happens:


1.)  The damn thing breaks (either material fatigue or some accident, like falling down from great heights or Lord Athian sitting down on it).

2.) The damn thing is so outdated that it doesn't work properly anymore (damn those smartphones and the people who created them with not enough internal memory - and shame on Google for bloating up their apps more and more, usually while cutting down on the usability at the same time)

3.) Arynkitty needs a new phone so that he can give me a call when he needs food, cuddles or a lift.


Usually one of those things happens at least once every 2-3 years. ^_^

Last smartphone I had lasted for about 5 years before I replaced it.

Before then, I was using an old tiny but sturdy phone from the 1998, one of those anti-impact ones that are able to withstand being driven over by a semi-trailer.

Remember the days when our technological stuff could withstand the weight of a semi-trailer?
Those were the days!

So yeah, before I got my smartphone, I'd had my old cellphone for 11 years!

Every two years, it helps having a subscription that last two years and upon lengthening it allows you to pick a free phone.

[Lycanthrope]

Whenever the old one stops working, that could be years and years or months in the case of accident

Every two years, it helps having a subscription that last two years and upon lengthening it allows you to pick a free phone.

My plan used to work like that, but seems they aren't doing it anymore for whatever reason. So I'm stuck with this one I have until who-knows when! 

[Radem]

I upgrade every two years. My cell phone is something I use every single day, so I figure I may as well splurge on it.
