No Style No. 17: Get more…?
Click to view full-size.
…sometimes, I dress like a Hot Topic teeny-gother. Jeez. Well, there’s a reason this comic is called “No Style”, after all…
There’s a story behind the pink phone - no, really. I’m not that flaming, or that much of a diva.
…yet.
A bit over a month ago, my old cell carrier - Amp’d Mobile - went bankrupt and dropped everyone with very little notice. At the time the carrier that had the plan best suited to my needs (and funds) was T-Mobile, and the best free phone they had available was the Motorola Razr V3 in either gunmetal or magenta.
Naturally, I chose the gunmetal.
Naturally, all they had was the magenta.
It was either live two weeks without a cellphone while they got more of the gunmetal in stock (not happening), or deal with having a pink phone. I hate pink. I hate pink with a violent passion, save for my rose sunglasses, which have somehow become affixed almost permanently to my face and have managed to creep past my aversion towards the vile color.
But…long story short, I couldn’t survive without a cell, and so now I have the cutely gayest phone on the face of the earth. I tried skins from DecalGirl to cover it, and they don’t fit quite right and look tacky, so I just…deal with it until I qualify for a phone upgrade. I’m even starting to like it a little.
And now my friends won’t leave me alone about it.
Yyyyeah. Someone’s going to get a shiv to the trachea if they don’t shut it pretty soon. You know who I’m talking to. That’s right, I’m looking at you. Wench.
Man, I really need a haircut.

It takes a man secure in his sexuality to carry around a magenta phone. Or something.

To quote Daring Donovan Deegan: “Only real men…”
Sometimes when you think you’ve got problems… Something like this comes along ^_^

I definitely agree with Van. Even though you violent dislike the colour with a passion.
I think it’s nice to have a little element of surprise, especially with your “Hot Topic teeny goth” sense of style.
Today’s strip amused me to no return! Amazing job as always!
Peace, love and chocolate chip cookie dough!

Ugh, is that Blossom phone dorky. And, I would have asked for the gunmetal . . . and waited until they got one. I’d have made sure they told me; I’d have called them every day for the next two weeks, so they could legitimagely call their supplier and say, “There’s this neurotic chick who won’t stop bugging us about it!”

Oh, and, NICE abs, Adri.

Isn’t it horrifying, Amy? And it’s like cheap acrylic paint that you know will wear off in about 2 months and then you have a normal pink RAZR with little blotches of crap all over.
And yes, the abs are great!

Holy crap, why does that person with bad judgment resemble a skinny version of me?

…because apparently I have a penchant for befriending pale redheads with considerable…ah…assets. (No, seriously, that description matches at least four of my female friends.)
