What's wrong with someone texting at the checkout counter?

How the hell does someone manage to send out three hundred thousand texts per month? Though the phone company are still shitheads for charging him; unlimited should mean unlimited regardless of how much it's abused
It was 217,000, my bad. :monster:

Though, I was wrong about it being $25,000... it was $26,000, for a hundred thousand less texts. :monster:

What will happen to the spoiler subforum after ACC stops being spoilerific?
I'm guessing there'll be no subforum and the threads will be moved?

it'll probably just be made into a read-only archive, or else threads will be tagged with "Spoilers" and moved into the main section.

whats wrong with it is that its rude. You try to talk and they are sitting there texting, not even talking at you, if paying attention at all.

If you want to communicate for at least thirty minutes, call me instead. Seriously.

I actually don't mind texting for long periods of time, as long as it's something worth while, lol. I hate one word responses like "lol" and "yeah". Or the one that really gets me,
"Hey".
Say something more than that, please! I might like texting though, because I'm fast at it. xD Sometimes there are times when you just don't feel like talking on the phone, so it really helps with that.

That reminds me! Does anyone get annoyed when people text you saying things like,
"Are you there?"
"Are you there yet?"
"When are you going to answer?"
"Hello?"
I'm obviously busy! XD

Texting's definitely better than dealing with long-distance phone bills. I don't really mind doing it all that much, because I'm fast at it, but a lot of the quirks associated with texting irk me to no end. Especially 'txt spk.' And yeah, people can be damn annoying with it.

What irks me is the people who decide to text over calling even though calling may be the superior alternative.

No, I'm not talking about texting while you're communicating with someone, that is rude. But I don't find it rude to be texting at a check out counter.

Or you know... chatting online is probably the best way. :monster:

According to the NY Post, China currently holds the spot.

UGH! IS IT REALLY THAT HARD TO TYPE "YOU" INSTEAD OF "U"?!
I don't mind txt speak as long as it's decipherable - and on a phone. If it's txt speak somewhere like here, or an e-mail, that just gets me irked.

The only way I can find txt spk excusable is if the person using it actually gets charged per byte sent. Otherwise it's just execrable.

I haven't heard of that. Am I late with the news or what? :awesomonster:
No, you're fine - I just read the news too much. :comedian:

And stumble too much.






















Damn, the internet has taken over my life. D:

I know how you feel. Nyaha. It's bad enough that I'm so addicted to the internet at such a young age.

When did your news come out? Mine was around Feb, so I thought it was pretty recent. Wiki says so too :monster: I'm so lame, being so Wiki reliant. XDDDD


We don't call here anymore, BTW. Mostly texting. So the language is pretty much decreasing to txt spk. I hate it when my friends text me that way. DDDX

I don't trust Wiki - general news sites are good. And stumbling for news is actually pretty entertaining. :monster: I'm not sure where I got it, I think it was wired online?

Same here. I don't like texting very much, tbh.
