Left my phone at the restaurant last night, will pick it up soon. This is always a great social discomfort, because my phone is in horrifying condition.
They will tease me mercilessly.

It is cracked in several places, and the case's seam has split quite a bit, so it looks like the stuffing is coming out of it.
It's a Galaxy S8 Active, and it's been the best phone I've ever had, and I don't want to get a new model, and it wasn't that popular so there aren't millions of old ones laying around for cheap.
It works fine, btw, or at least for my needs. I don't do much with a phone, so I've never been a heavy UI manipulator on it. The cracks can be annoying when you try to pinch zoom, but otherwise it's great.
I can't say something like, "hey, if it ain't broke, don't fix it", cuz, well, it's pretty clearly broke all to shit. I just have to grin and bear it.
It used to be highly water-resistant, according to the ads. Nowadays if I were lost in the wilderness I could use it as a rainwater collector.
<sigh>
