There are two types of people in the world...
Those that twist up a telephone cord and those that don't.

Those that still have telephone cords and those that don't.
Picture a bright blue ball just spinning, spinning free
It's dizzying, the possibilities. Ashes, Ashes all fall down.

Those that have phones and those that don't have phones.

Twisted cords are due to an undeclared war between the righties and the lefties. We demand left-handed phones!

There are 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Re: There are two types of people in the world...
There are also those who know how to untwist telephone cords, and do so.
And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')

You beat me to the punch. I even know how to fix it in that odd situation when a right handed helix meets a left handed helix. Some people just unconsciously give the receiver a 360 degree rotation when they pick up or put down. Being OCD with with likely mild autism, I was born with mindfulness in the Buddhist sense. Most people seen asleep at the wheel to me.s1m0n wrote:There are also those who know how to untwist telephone cords, and do so.

They might not know that their left-handedness is what is the precipitating factor to their phone cords twistings. I find twisted phone cords unbearable. Now I'll be able to educate those folks around me to stop this. Sinistre makes even more sense now.

Re: There are two types of people in the world...
I read somewhere that human nature effects to twist the cord.
Under normal circumstances people pick up the receiver with their right hand (being right-handed) and then have to note something down, so transfer the receiver to their left hand. This make a twist. Left-handed people will do the same, but the other way around.
Once in a while you only need to lift the receiver and let it dangle. It will spin to untwist itself.

Inefficient people would do things that way. I pick up the phone with my left hand, even have it set on the left side of my cubicle at work, so that my right hand stays free.

Our phone cord is 25ft. long. Luckily the phone is close to the back door and the extension ladder that goes to the gutters on the second floor. If I had been thinking I would have put the phone by the third floor window.Innocent Bystander wrote:

There are two types of people, those that are currently living and those that are not.
There are two types of people, those that will read this and those who will not.
There are two types of people, you are one of them.
There are two types of people, those that categorize people and those that do not.
There are two types of people, those that fix a name to a taxon, and those that do not.
Two types o' people there be, those that talk like pirates and those other lubbers.
