PVPS (phantom vibrating phone syndrome)?

What has it got in its pocketses, my precious?

And this too shall pass …

Dang. It happens to me too. Even though I never keep my phone in vibrate mode!

I heartily agree, been happening for months now, (even as I write this!) and can be disconcerting.

I don’t have it with my phone. Now back in the days of pagers……it was a constant. Even on days I never wore the dang thing I felt it going off.

Is that your phone vibrating, or are you just happy to see me?

Yeah.

Hmph! In my day we didn’t worry about yer fancy vibratin’ phones- we worried about having enough spare dimes and the ability to find a nearby pay telephone with a ROTARY DIAL! And by gum, we were grateful for it!

Wait, what were we talking about…?

Actually turned out to be his bowls growling.

I used to get that all the time, just realized the other day that i didn’t anymore.

Is it wishful thinking, or anticipating a call?

Huh?

I almost spit out my tea when I read this…..SO TRUE FOR ME! ROFL!

oh-oh

I must be incredibly dense. What the heck is happening there?
