^ It means you never get off your phone.

the idea is that it might affect you 50-70 years down the line.
That's why there is no "conclusive studies" yet because these new newfangled gadgets haven't been around long enough to conduct long term studies.

to give an analogy (albit of a bit extreme one) is like to say that I've been smoking for 6 of my last 22 years (the age listen in your profile) and I don't have lung cancer yet!

I personally do think that it is a very possible threat, but obviously the convenience of having a cell phone always in my pocket, and the requirement for all papers to be typed up outweigh the risk down the line (or do they?).
Lung cancer comes from cumulative effect, brain tumours come outta nowhere :P In any case, it's only dangerous while receiving and sending signals (i.e. when you're calling and texting people) because the microwave amplification can cause the frequency of your cells to soar, thus augmenting their temperature and causing an internal meltdown...at least that's what happens to your micro-waved food when exposed to a constant stream of microwaves! So when you talk too much, using a handsfree is a must (too much = 5min+).

I sleep next with my head literally inches away from my computer (which is pulling about 650w constantly), my server (another 250w), a step-down transformer, a UPS, and an industrial grade network switch. I've done that for years, and it doesn't do a thing to me.
None of these have an actual effect on you, unless your computer screen is a brown-type and the box is facing your head (case of stray electrons zapping your NS).

Long time ago it used to be p0rn mags under my pillow

now it's just another pillow, 1 pillow ain't enough gotta be 2 now.
Know what's better than 2 pillows? 2 pr0n pillows!

When I lose a tooth, I put it under my pillow for the Tooth Fairy!

other than that, I keep my voodoo doll type doll-thing close by. Makes me feel safe.

Well it's not exactly a Voodoo Doll... More of just a bunch of spare pieces of dirty cloth sewn together to make a human-like shape with a stitched mouth and different-sized buttons for eyes. No magic involved... probably.

I sometimes do that too, some songs can make it easy to fall asleep.

Songs ain't got no subliminal stuff in it! Even if they do I'm too smart for them!

whenever i listen to songs in front of my computer or lying in bed and i close my eyes (the actual purpose is to focus), usually after like half an album i fell asleep.

yeah, well i think whether songs have subliminal stuff or not depends on whether we believe in it or not, and i think that i am too smart too for it to work

that'll surely woke you up if it fell
when i sleep while listening to songs i'll probably wake up after 15-20 minutes, but often i can't sleep again after that without listening to music.

What if I was a heavy sleeper? Even the loud noise that it makes will probably not wake me up.

Wow, I am a heavy sleeper
Once I fall asleep, no sound can wake me up, even my phone with max volume on my ear

I'm the heavy sleeper that is not to be disturbed Or else this will happen to me...

Spoiler for Sleep Issues..:


Sometimes I have to put a sonic-boom clock under my pillow at the set-time I want to wake up, to even get me to open my eyelids a little bit... When I mean by sonic-boom I mean this...
