People have learned just how easy these devices are to break. That's why she didn't have hers on her, she learned.
I've been snowboarding with my phone in my pocket for 20 years and never had an issue. Make excuses all you want, the fact remains that this person could have fixed this problem in 30 seconds with their phone. If you'd still rather leave your phone somewhere else to protect it then that's your decision to make. Getting stuck on the mountain is your problem to deal with. Just don't bitch about it if it happens to you.
I’ve been driving for 20 years and never once needed my seatbelt.
Sounds kinda dumb, doesn’t it?
lol what a dumb hill to die on, are you that bad at snowboarding you assume everyone else is too?
Bring good doesn’t mean you don’t fall. These are orthogonal metrics.
Put a case on your phone and store it in a pocket you're not likely to fall on. You're acting like protecting your device is rocket science and it just isn't. Plenty of people do it without issue. If you can't figure it out that's a you problem.
Do what you wish stranger, I personally have learned from others.
