I call you ‘fauxbration’

Chris | October 21, 2008 | 10:37 am

You, you are that false tingle, that lying trick of the nerves.
You are that feeling from a mobile device carried in a pocket, that’s set to vibrate.

And you *feel* the vibration, and you look; no missed calls, no new messages. Liar.

You are ‘fauxbration’

Until someone comes up with a more clever word for it.
