Honestly though, that guy looks safer than most attentive drivers I see these days...

Texting is gay whether you are riding, driving, or sitting on a fucking couch...

I used to think that... then I realized the alternative was actually talking on the phone... so I fully embraced texting.

I've got serious talking on the phone issues. Not that i have anxiety about it or anything, its just that i cant fucking just sit still and talk into a little box for too long. I get distracted by anything. TV, Computer, That little piece of string...

It's not even that... some people just want to bullshit... I want information free of all the bullshit. People can't jabber on and on while texting... and if you want the conversation to end, it's not shitty to just stop.

Thats about how it goes for me. Thats whats great about texting, it gives you an alert whenever you need to pay attention again.

:dthumb:

Oh and fuck voicemail. How many times do I have to tell someone I haven't listened to their message, I just saw they called and called them back. I hate hearing someone babble, only to hear them babble again when I call them. Now I just call voicemail to delete the messages.

Saw some black dude doing it on a GSXR the other week. He'd accelerate enough to get a good coast going and text away. I was on my bike behind just nodding my head.

You asked where his what was? Is that code for his unit and you're secretly gay? I'm so confused...

Look at the top left side of your keyboard. A QWERTY is a phone that has the same keyboard as a computer ;)

Crazy 07-12-2008 02:11 PM

I don't have the plan. Costs me 2 dimes as well.

I have unlimited texting for like 10 bucks a month. I have to empty my inbox about once a day (50 inbox and 50 outbox, about). Definitely worth 10 bucks a month. I also hate talkin on the phone.

its so much easier than calling, huh?

Crazy 07-12-2008 08:21 PM

how the hell is it easier than calling? maybe i can't text fast enough, but i can get more across in a 30 second conversation than by texting back and forth. if its something simple like "hey meet me here" then i understand... but otherwise, again i say wtf.

It depends... I hated texting until I got a phone with a full keyboard. After that I preferred it to actually talking. You can get the info across without alot of fluffy filling. Besides,I'm often in loud environments where a phone conversation would be virtually impossible. My only beef with texting is how it's destroying the english language with acronyms and abbreviations. I hate trying to decipher some of the code that I might be presented with during a typical text.

if i just want to tell someone something, with out convorsation, then it's a text. if i want to actually talk to someone, i call.

t-homo 07-13-2008 08:42 PM

I just always text. Its a lot more private if you are with a group too.
