I could live without a cell phone. I have one but rarely use it and have it for mostly emergencies. Yet, people can't understand why I don't want them to call me on the cell just to chat. Because if you really want to call me, call me at home. If I am not there, leave a message, I'll get back to you. I won't talk on the phone while driving, and if I am out, it's because I am doing something and probably is not a good time to talk. Am I the only one that feels this way?

The other thing I can do without is high heels! Wore them when I was young, would not wear them now.

money... because too many are too obsessed with it.
too many things ore overlooked and ignored in order for some to get it. it is used as an excuse to do alot of things that should never be done...

there is no excuse for money being so important that some people have to choose between medicine, food, lodging or any other necessity. the cost of basic necessities are ridiculous in some places.

yes it is and should a crime for some1 to be killed for a pair of shoes... but its also a crime that shoes cost what they do so that some feel they have to kill another to get some.

(soapbox on money over) lol sorry :D

I agree with the money

Food should not cost as much as it does!

Junk food! It's not good for you!

Soda, another thing not good for you.

Pornography, IT'S DISGUSTING!

Drugs that are bad for you...

Ciggerettes

Chewing Tobacco

cigars

Cars (In some cases, such as short distance trips)

I'm with you, too!

The rest of my list:

-- tobacco products of all kinds
-- those automated answering machines businesses use that make you hold forever and won't let you talk to a person
-- spandex, which a) does not make you look thinner, but instead clings to all your rolls and b) does not "wick away" sweat well enough to deal with mine
-- vinyl siding, which is uglifying the nation
-- carpeting made from petroleum products
-- comfort shoes, which are unjustifiably ugly. Just make beautiful shoes in sizes that fit real people's feet properly.
-- pen grippers - they make the pen harder to hold?
-- business suits, nylons, all that goes with them

Swimsuits - why dress up to go in the water? Makes no sense to me.

Pantyhose

Cell phone - Huge intrusion in my life, but I got it when I was looking for work as an access number when I am online (dialup)
