Dear Tina – My smartphone makes me feel dumb

Dear Tina,

I finally decided to upgrade my old flip phone for a shiny new smartphone with all the bells and whistles. It plays music and has a slide out keyboard and a touchscreen. It looks really impressive, but so far I have not been able to do anything smart with it. I haven’t figured out how to text and I can't get into my voicemail. I managed to change my wallpaper but it changes back the next day.

The guy in the store said I could sink my email accounts but I don't know what that means. Please help me figure out my phone.

Sincerely, Phonephobe

Could this really be a guy?

WTF? – Bad American Accents

The Darwinian evolution of the English language over the past 200 years in isolation from it's source has led to a new language, American English. This language has geographical variations, from the bubble gum blonde Californian to the nasally stressed New Yorker and the y'all drawl of the south.
