First World Problems
#3
RE: First World Problems
Cell phones are hardly a luxury item nowadays. I mean - seriously, everyone in the Western World probably has a bunch of burners lying around somewhere, since smart-phones became standard. Not to mention Asia, where most of those have been manufactured. They're junk and I don't find it at all strange, that even poor Africans would have them.

Still, our vision of what we call 3rd world is undoubtedly based to a large extent on condescension, xenophobia and plain-old ignorance.
"The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one." - George Bernard Shaw
