    i haven't, but like 20 years ago when regular people just had some shit candy bar nokia phone i had a friend drop like one of those (at the time) fancy and very expensive blackberries into a friend's toilet. like the kicker was that there was no reason on earth for him to have that phone. he had some shitty part time retail job, but he was always maxing out his credit card on like the fanciest shit. it didn't make any sense, because his entire social group was people like me: broke dirtbags who just wanted to get high and play video games in whoever had the shitty apartment we could get high in. nobody was ever impressed with his gadgets.

    the kicker was it was brand new that night and he had just showed it to us. then he went and took a piss but was too stoned and dropped his phone in the can. he came out and told us he dropped it in the toilet and then just went home because he was too mad at himself to hangout.
