Locked out of Twitter because I don't have a mobile phone [View all]

"Enter your mobile phone number to receive a text message with a confirmation code. You’ll use the code to verify this is really your number."

Am I the only person left on Earth who doesn't have a celly? They have a similar deal in place when I renew my security clearance at work but they have alternatives for people who aren't phone zombies. Twitter doesn't, and I suspect it's because they really, really, REALLY want another contact point from which to annoy me. Soooo, no great loss I guess.
