Crying Can Be Bad For Your Cellphone
Highly emotional encounters can be bad for your phone. And I’m not talking of the throwing-the-phone-to-the-wall kind. Even crying may prove to be damaging to one’s mobile.
Unlike some of her more effusive phone conversations, the call in question had lasted only around 10 minutes, with maybe five minutes of actual water flow, she said.
Amy knew something was wrong almost immediately–and this time it wasn’t her relationship.
“The keypad started to malfunction. I couldn’t hit the ’send’ button, and that was very sad,” she said. The next day the Sprint customer support people told her the phone had water corrosion.
Tears are corrosive, indeed. After all, tears are mineral-rich. And sensitive electronics are better off away from any liquids that are mineral-rich.
Tear fluid contains water, mucin, lipids, lysozyme, lactoferrin, lipocalin, lacritin, immunoglobulins, glucose, urea, sodium, and potassium.
This should probably serve as a warning to the über-emotional. Either get a hands-free kit or a waterproof casing for your mobile.
