My Not-yet-broken iPhone X

I really, really tried to keep a case on my iPhone X. Just like the other 9 I’ve tried it with, I lasted 2 days. I just can’t do it. It’s like going to a fine restaurant and putting Vicks under your nose while you eat. What’s the point?

Some good things are just fragile, and I’m ok with that. If I drop it, and it breaks, I’ll pay the fee to fix it or replace it. What I won’t do is only experience half of the enjoyment of the device—permanently—just to keep it safe.

It’d be like moving to San Francisco, paying crazy rent, and then not go outside to avoid getting sick.

On an unrelated note, I need to go outside more. With my unprotected iPhone. That I’ll probably drop.
