Yah, news to me, didn't realize I was above 30 either....anyways, another vote for mailing it in.

Its the whole concept - slack ass etc. However mail underlies this more due to the slow speed of it.

Yea, but to mail something you have to grab an envelope, address the envelope, find a stamp, and go drop it in the mailbox. Whereas you sit your fat ass on a couch and grab the phone and punch a few buttons. Phoning is lazier.

I voted mail it in because until this thread I've never heard of phoning it in.

That's the point.

"Phoning" something in would be much more efficient and prudent than "mailing" something in.

Next should be e-mail, then texting. Then maybe mental messaging.

Yup.

And even moreso, to do all that stuff to "mail it in", people would likely be lazy and stop part way through the process, or only do it slack ass.

Never, ever heard anything desribed as "Phoned it in"....
It has always been "Mailed it in"
