UK phone retailer Right Mobile Phone conducted an interesting survey among their customers and got some intriguing results. According to their survey:

• 71% say using their favorite song as their alarm clock, versus the system default or no alarm clock at all, made them feel happier that day
• 80% say not receiving a reply to their text messages makes them feel “negative”, whatever that means
• 41% said going by one day without getting a text message made them feel unpopular or lonely
• Less than one in 10 people, 9% to be exact, actually laughed at a text message despite 61% of people using “LOL” in a text message
• None of the people surveyed have ever rolled over the floor laughing, otherwise known as ROLFing, or laughed their asses off, otherwise known as LMAO or in my case LMFAO
• 82% of people love to hear from their partners or people they deeply care about on a daily basis
• 18% of people don’t pick up when their parents call
• 78% of people tell someone that they love them using a mobile phone on a daily basis
• Less than 7% of people said they could go one whole day without using their mobile phone
• On average, people have 95 people in their address book
• 69% of people call or text less than 8 people a week
• 18% of people have pretended to receive a call or text messages

Hmm...

1. I use the modem dial-up tone as my alarm. The point is to wake up, not smile and happily stretch then skip out of bed.
2. It's called "feeling ignored."
3. Do traffic updates from AM730 count?
4. It's a good 90% for me. Yippie-kay-yay.
5. It's hard to find room for the first one, and the second one is just plain physically impossible.
6. Makes me wonder about the other 18%...
7. My mother texts me instead of calling. :/
8. .......FML.
9. Wow, those 7% are troopers. Or Amish.
10. I'm above average, for once.
11. 69%? They must be busy doing...oh never mind.
12. Wow, only 18%? Perhaps the other 82% use one of those fake-call programs.

they dont fake receive calls to look cool, more to get out of a shitty date or some other obligation, receive a fake call and say its an emergency and you gotta go

1. I used to use songs to wake me up but it always ends up with me being annoyed of the song cause it's what would wake me up every morning. I'd rather be annoyed of a generic alarm sound then ruin a good song.
