Age of Texting =/

Ahhhh man, today I came to the realization that we are in a age of texting to some sort...

Everyone I know texts....
While they are taking test ...Text
When they are talking to each other ......Text
When they are driving.......Text
When they are peeing....text

There are some people that I don't even understand, they pull their phone out every 15 seconds and they text. Who the hell could you possibly be texting at 6:00 in the god damn morning?

Now I do have a cell phone and I do occasionally text but god damn some people are just addicted to this shit.

What freaking world do we live in that people will even text while at a doctors appointment..

I text more than I call. Why? Because I have free texting.

Yes I understand the whole free texting scenario but are you one of those people that compulsively text every 15 seconds?

Because I am sure that 95% of people here do that.

@Mirosuke, ya I had friends as well, but evens o I proffer hearing a voice rather than typing all day.

many of the new young generations find it easier to express something over text than thru their actual voice

i text when it's needed and talk when needed, though i prefer talking a bit more than texting

I don't really do it much. If I know it's gonna be a long conversation then I would call that person, but if it's only a quick question I would text it. I'm not the type of person who likes to talk for a long time, so I don't really call anyone. Come to think of, I don't really use my phone much.

Cave man

I don't text but I get text alerts when I have to fill out orders for people. And I check them even when I'm in the shower etc. Does that count?

sometimes it's useful, but I'm not a big texter, cuz I see every one I know daily, and if I don't, I don't care.

And about texting at 6 am, I sometimes do that too, as I am already on my way at 6, so I can text people with a quick question as others are also on their way at 6 already.

I used to text loads.. not so much anymore.

Dont have a clue how anyone could possibly live without a mobile phone though.

I stopped texting at 12. Whenever someone texts me I call them, it's cheaper :s

I usually just either call people or IM them on my phone. The only time I text is when I'm too busy to talk or reply to someone every 10 seconds on msn/ym/aim.

500 texts a day? HAHAHA

Try 850.

I text if it is going to be a short conversation, like asking someone a quick question. But if I know I am going to be in a longer, more engaging conversation, I would prefer to call them.

wootpops · **Posted:** Tue Sep 22, 2009 1:03 am

I'm not like that and i think its pretty dumb you will blindly say 95% of this forum does it. I hate the people who text in dark places like a theatre. or people like my sister who will lay on the couch and text her friend instead of going on comp and getting on msn or just calling.

So wait, this thread turned into a place for people to boast about their text messages powaz and increase their e-penis? o.O

Neways, I sometimes text, not as much as I call/talk though, since I don't have unlimited text =(

I dont have in it in my plan, and even if i did, i wouldnt be hose addicts who check it every 15 seconds. I'd only text because I wuoldnt feel like calling someone in a public place and it would be weird. A long term convo can be applied thru texts

Reise · **Joined:** May 2006 **Posts:** 6650 **Location:**

Not on my phone plan either.

I don't know what can be said on texts that can't be said in a phone call.

If you're just texting someone to say "LOL INTERNET" you gotta sort some shit out with yourself.
