I hate when people say "Cell's good" in away messages, emails, etc.

Like:

"I'm out for the day. Cell's good!"

What does that mean? Is it possible for the cell to be bad?

Cell's good---> Cell phone is good----> It would be good to call me on my cell phone if you want to contact me.

Simple

What the hell are you talking about? I think you have some strange friends.

Of course he could. But he felt the compulsion to post *something* on his blog, and that was the most substantial subject he was able to think up.

If that's what you consider the most annoying thing ever, then can I insert stuff into your anus?

I know some people who use that as an away message. I understood what it meant the first time I saw it, and it doesn't annoy me.

I personally hate when people type random assortments of letters (such as "jfsdfdh") to convey frustration in away messages/facebook comments/etc.

I also never seen that before but instantly knew it was what yank explained seems easy to understand to me.

Can't remember if ive heard that exactly, but ive heard things of that ilk. its a cheerful sounding phrase that managers use when theyre deciding to "telecommute".
