LOL...now for Tbieter (for the hysterical wise crack in the feminine hygiene thread. :P ) Not a song but reminds me of him and probably music to someone's ears! :lol:

In Shinto it is believed that all objects have a spirit, including tools and thusly electronic devices such as computers and robots. If you don't treat the poor things with love then what do you expect from them? :(

Perhaps you couldn't get rid of it because you felt responsible for the poor thing, having smashed it on the floor. I know its 'stupid', but I always feel a sad sense of loss when I have to rid myself of a possession I have had for years, like my old Nokia 3310, that went through some proper scrapes with me, and I'm ashamed to say it suffered some abuses. And then there was my old computer, who I swear had such a sense of companionship that it timed its suicide such that I would get maximum usage out of it before the guarantee ran out :wink:

Why are you ashamed to say the abuses your phone had?

While I do not agree with shinto, I do certainly consider it to be a positive perspective.

When people fail to use an object properly, they can often take their anger out on the object and smash it about; hence making it work less well. The belief that the object has a character and spirit, and that it is reprehensible to so abuse it, and that its original failure is due to unkind behaviour (where kindness to a tool is sharpening and cleaning it), leads to a more positive perspective and hence more positive outcomes.

As I said, I felt an attachment to my phone, it was with me through thick and thin, and to act negligently in regard to something we have an affinity for, no matter how 'stupid' that affinity may be, shows a deficiency of character.

A protestant may feel similarly ashamed, but for different reasons. Proper maintenance of tools is a part of a decent work ethic, neglecting them such that they come to harm demonstrates degeneracy.

My phone survived for years; but that it did so was a bleeding miracle, which is in part why I felt an attachment to it. It once fell out of my pocket at a Muse concert and was kicked about by thousands of people. It survived though, covered with muck, with its detachable plastic cover having come off but the core intact, and with only a scratch or two. When someone/something demonstrates great loyalty, it is hard not to reciprocate :wink:

Bondi I never posted a song trying to describe you. Mainly it's all about mood, I don't mean that the lyrics literally suit you. My approach is more abstract :-) I think I am getting closer though:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsyH7_xt ... re=related

this is the acoustic version and a poor quality audio/video. I couldn't find the original version on youtube :-( Right now it's my favorite song and ,oddly enough, it reminds me of you. I don't know how or why :-) It's just a feeling I have, nothing specific (that has happened with all the songs I have posted to you- and I don't include the ones I posted to express my mood, for example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gp7fK_JPPsY )

I loved " I can't go for that" :-D

And why "lol" about the "method of modern love" song? It's nice!
