I used to hate texting. Then I learned it has several purposes.
- Very loud rooms - Very quiet rooms - low signal areas where a call won't go out but a text might - private conversations - conveying information with people you don't like talking to (phone hogs) That said, people who sit in a public place at a table together not talking because they are texting others have something wrong with them. |

My husband has hearing loss, mostly from his early job, and when we are at a noisy restaurant, we'll text each other. Mostly so we can talk about people without them overhearing! It's a tool, a good one, usually. My sons and I text daily. BUT NOT WHILE DRIVING!

Just I had a state pooper almost drive under my truck while typing on the computer in his car, just as bad as texting. I believe his ass sucked the seat cover up when he heard the horn and saw the trailer tool box approaching his windshield.
Now they write tickets for it. |

I personally don't care for texting but ill tell you this, I drive truck for a living and the amount of "women" that text and drive is off the chart. I have not taken a count but i would bet that 8 out of 10 women have either phone in hand or on her lap, or talking on speaker phone, OH! thats better,,,NOT. Anyway just please be safe and think of others for once in ur life..

"Nothing will ever top the interpersonal art of communication vis a vis."
-- I am a fan of texting, but am also old and I didn't grow up with it ....but i see bunches and bunches of youngins every single day that cannot talk to save their lives anymore. Texting has topped the interpersonal art of communication for them. And it is SAD SAD SAD!!!! :( I also agree with ff's point value, lol. If you had put a 'lol' in it, I would have thought you did it yourself and really thought it was funny, not sarcastic. And we all know it's not funny... |

"Texting removes everything to include the correct word you want to convey. This is if your normal and you can't spell. For example: Say your disappointed in someone but you can't spell it. So you text: pissed at. Completely different connotation, if not meaning. So here is my question: Why don't you be really cool and demand a morse code key and send in morse?"
How's this for inflection: That was particularly garbled and nonsensical, even for you. |
