Andy’s incredulous…
…and Dougy’s aghast!
Their human’s had his smartphone for two years, and he just figured out that the part that plugs into the 110 Volt outlet is a transformer, and the cord has a USB connector that plugs into the transformer. He thought he had to charge it on 110 Volts, but could have used one of the USB ports in his car to charge it while on the road. If he’d realized that last September, he would have had a working phone after his encounter with a rock. Geez!
2 Cats saw their owner had a 2 -year old smartphone. They must be amazed!
Their photos are the main subject of all the stored photos since all of my blog photos since April 2016 were taken by me using my smartphone!
Should’ve let them figure it out and show you!
LOL!
Well, you know now and so do I but I don’t have a smartphone so you’re smarter than me.

I use mine more as a camera than as a phone. (All photos used in this blog that were shot after April 2016 were shot with the smartphone.) The phone functions would be better served with a simple flip phone.
You are not alone my friend. For a solid year I sat within two feet of the playstation because I didn’t realize that the cable was actually a charging cable and that it was wireless. *facepalm*
LOL! I feel your pain!
MOL ! Better late that never ! Purrs
I guess so, though I feel of, um, “stoopid”! Ha!
doodz……we willna say how manee months like a BUNCH it taked de food servizz gurl ta figure out why de volume on de fone waz sew low ~~~~~~ 🙂 ♥♥
LOL! I went through that, too, though I did figure that one out in a couple days. A small victory I cherish… Ha!
We all miss small details, Doug. It happens. 🙂
I probably had to pick the USB plug into the transformer when I first got it, too…
I have unexpected revelations of the obvious like that myself–frequently but often too late!
I could have saved myself a $200 taxi ride had I realized the USB business back in September. My insurance company didn’t pick it up because they are ignorant about how stretched out and/or absent services are in this part of the country. (They require customers to use one of two rental car companies, for example, but one doesn’t have an office within three hours’ drive of where I live, and the other is an hour’s drive away from where I live, which, when I needed a rental car, was that t$200 taxi ride away. They don’t understand that getting two or more appraisals is difficult when there is only one place to get a particular service done. Stupid people!
Sorry boys, humans can be slow. As long as they can open cans you will be fine 🙂
Yes, I reminded them I have that skill down, and know how to tear opening strips off their dry food bag. Of course, the Greenies come in a container that has a safety seal to baffle me after I unscrew the lid, but I eventually worry it off the jar!
I’m aghast too. As one of our daughters often says ‘Google is your friend’ meaning I need to look up these things.
The smart phone came without an instruction manual! I googled for one put out by Nerd Patrol or some such thing. It was pretty good, but I guess I already plugged the cord into the transformer, then forgot about it. Google is my go to place for lots of things!
A joy to reconnect with you dear friend. Misssed you for a good while.Nice day to you.
I seem to have “unfollowed” you somehow, another WordPress mystery. Anyway, I checked “Follow” and will just continue to wonder what happened!
Thank God we are back together.
