The Phone Book Isn’t Dead (WAF Edition)

Funny followup to my last post.
When my wife saw it, she yelled at me for throwing out the new phone books. She argued that while the kids are running amok, it’s far easier for her to flip through the book rather than fire up the laptop and search for something.
Of course I found this funny, since her laptop is on (usually in standby) all day regardless.
Anyways - it seems that the death of the phone book doesn’t pass the WAF factor. Yet.

Too funny. Same in my house.

My wife usually tosses the phone book before I do. So it passes the WAF here…

Odd. My wife had the opposite reaction, “You deal with this.” Handing me not one but three new phonebooks (the White Pages, the Yellow Pages, and the local Yellow Pages Wannabe). It appears that the phone company is danged if it does, danged if it doesn’t, as it also runs up against the other WAF (Wife Annoyance Factor).
