Best uses for a fried iPhone

November 4th, 2007

It’s a Sunday afternoon as I write this and I am feeling slightly whimsical. So I figured why not write something a little on the light side? Well after giving it some thought, I figured why not write about what to do with your iPhone if you happened to have completely fried the thing.

Use it as a ornamental paper weight: One of the cool things about owning an iPhone is that you can show it off to your friends. So if it gets fried, why not continue to show it off by using it as a paper weight? Then people will know that not only were you cool enough to own an iPhone, you are also a fan of avant garde art movements.

Use it to even out a wiggly table: I hate nothing more than going to a restaurant and having a table that won’t stand still. However now I have an answer. Simply slide the fried iPhone under one of the legs and the table is sure to stay still.

Enter into the world stone skipping tournament: Okay so I know that technically the iPhone is not made out of rocks, but really the thing is perfectly shaped for skipping across water. Not only that but is there a better way to impress someone with your lack of concern for material things?

Use it as an emergency reflective device: We have all heard stories of someone signaling to rescue craft with a shiny object of some sort of another. The fried iPhone would be perfect for this. I mean damn the thing damn near blinds you when it catches the light. I know that replacing the fried iPhone and using a working one to call someone would probably work better, but hey lets not get ahead of ourselves now.

File down the edges a bit and use it as a weapon: Got a neighbor who annoys you? Or are you an avid hunter? No problem, simply file down a couple of the edges of the iPhone and now you have a totally serviceable weapon. If you want to go real hard core just use the thing as it is put your arm back and let it fly. I am sure it can injure any number of things.

Use it for a wallet: So I am kind of stretching now so this will be the last one, but seriously take your iPhone apart, empty out the insides, cut a slit in the side and now you have a wallet.

Hope you enjoyed those, or at least got a giggle or two. See you tomorrow.
