So about five years ago I got into with a girl I was dating about text messages, so much communication is lost via text, and I turned text messaging off with my carrier.  Just yesterday, I gots me a phone with the smarts after my six year old Sanyo M-1 was giving my some problems.  What am I in for?

I'm only 32.    I have taken a lot of pride in shunning the phones with the smarts.  My head is spinnin.
I just find it laughable when groups of females show up at the bar, grab a table, and then just sit there thumbing their phones and not even paying attention to their friends.  It's fucking pathetic.

I'm 41.  I received a text from a 24 year old smoking hot blonde yesterday, asking me out on a date.  I haven't even spoken to her in 4 months.  Prior to that, I was invited out via text message by a lovely woman who decided I needed to be her date / dance partner at a local country bar.  Text messaging is a good thing, apparently.

You know that's funny, after I got texts turned off I still got picture messages, until I called Sprint and got that turned of too because a friend sent me that shit.

I was getting ready for that to be followed up with, "I love it when my daughter invites me to lunch."

I prefer texting in most situations. It saves you a TON of time having to make banal chatter before you get to the point. You don't have to go through the whole "hey" "hey" "how are you?" "I'm not that great. My dog chewed up my newspaper and blah blah blah"  for forty minutes.

I text and say, "Do you want to come to my house for a cookout on the 4th?"

And get yes and no answers. No long discussions. Just send and go about your business. If I want to talk to you ... I'll do it face to face at my house on the 4th. Otherwise, just text me. I don't even check voicemails.

If you don't have texting, how is your woman supposed to send you titty pics? How is she supposed to discreetly tell you how much she wants to suck your dick while she's sitting next to you at dinner with a bunch of friends?

They're just texting each other about the loser at the bar who is staring at them but won't come over and say hi.  Or, texting each other to make themselves look busy so the loser down the bar doesn't come talk to them.

Ask me how I know!

I text quite a bit, but what I hate is the ADD texters.  You know the kind, you can't even read them because they come in so fast, 6-7 texts in a matter of 20 seconds and they could have all been squeezed into a single, 10-word text.

That's where you send one mass text to everyone who's coming.  Then wait for the iphone dweebs to reply to all.

I'm starting to prefer texting lately.  I find it hard hear people on cell phones.  I hear: "Hey Tab......you....hoot some pool....evening? ...........hear me?.......llo? ......still there?.......  ucking...phones..........land line later....   beeeep."






We pay a lot of fucking money for these fucking phones and they fucking suck at being a phone.

Unless you are using it to make plans.  Then you can make plans to come together, at a time when it would be inappropriate for one or more of you to have a normal telephone conversation.
