Texting SMTOE (sets my teeth on edge)
There are many things I just don’t get in this world:
If you’ve got the fucking mobile in your hand already, just make the goddamn call.
Full disclosure; over the past month, I have sent my first series of messages. Usually replying to the person who text-messaged me.
I think I’m over it.
Because it takes me something like five minutes to send a 15-character text.
And because I’ve come to realize that text-messaging is stupid.
That thing in your hand is a mobile telephone.
Texting is dangerous for society. We no longer talk. And I’m starting to see email in text-shorthand.
“Afaik il cu2nite b4 dinr, l8r.”
(“As far as I know, I’ll see you tonight, before dinner, later.”)
Pretty soon, we’ll all just be grunting at each-other, like Neanderthals.
OMG, LOL =]
- Bluetooth mobile headsets;
- Fat white fucks who wear wife-beater T-shirts;
- Caffeine-free Diet Coke;
- Reality television;
- “Bad Boy” pissing stickers;
- Foil “tamper-resistant” caps on shit like bleach, or ketchup;
- Celine Dion;
- Remembrance car magnets;
- Spoilers on shitty cars, like Honda Civics.
