RL conversation I had a few years ago with a classmate (btw, the cellphone package deal of a mobile phone company here, used to be all named MOBI *sth/usually a bird type*, like, if you bought a certain cellphone, you had a mobi owl, and so go on. Anyway, the deal of buying only a sim card, without any mobile, was called mobi chickadee).
Me: Oh, you got the new Nokia... V: Yeah, I bought it in Italy. Me: You got the mobi chickadee then? V: Yes. I (turning from in front of us): What? This *points at the phone* is the mobi chickadee? Me: No, the chickadee is only the sim card. I: Oh, I see... and how much did you pay? V: 20 euros (or sth). I: Only? I'm buying it, too! Me: But it's a sim card. I: So? Me: You don't need another one, you already can't remember one pin code. I: I don't care, it's cheap. I'm gonna buy it!
