In the event of a power outage, I can run a hand-crank generator or use solar power to keep it charged.

if i turn off my phone, my heart stops beating



*writes this down for nefarious purposes*

I turn the phone off before I sleep (and charge too), when I go into a movie theater or when in a place were you must here people. (Conference Panels, Classrooms, ect)

Reason is that in studying the way of the phone, I am a master of form 0. Which is learning when one must use or not use a phone. Then I can master the other forms of dialing and being a dick.

I turned my phone off in 2007, and haven't looked back.

My phone is usually off.  I only have it on me when I have to somewhere that isn't my day job, or on other special occasions.

I never turn my phone off, ever. If I need to have it not make noise (in class, at the movies) then I just turn the ringer off. If you ever turn your phone off, you're a nerd.
It looks like you got hit in the face with that egg and you want to eat it too.

My phone is almost always on silent, if I notice by some off chance it's ringing, I'll answer it.

I turn mine off. Otherwise this might happen:

Soon you won't be able to turn of a cell phone. The world will be like Max Headroom, and electronic devices will have no shut-off option.
The only acceptable form of commerce is a proper and shady cash-only weapons deal.

I didn't dial the wrong number, you picked up the wrong phone.

Ah, but lets not forget that a well-placed bullet can shut off any electronic device.
