Texting: A Question
Why do people text? You've got a cellular phone. It's capable of full-duplex voice communication. Why go through the arduous task of typing in characters?

This. The worst is when I don't have a Qwerty keyboard phone and someone I'm texting with does (wife has an iPhone, I have a crappo flip phone). She sends off like a barrage of paragraph long texts in the time it takes me to reply with a couple of words.

Actually, I look at who's calling me and if it's someone I don't want to talk to I'll immediately text them and ask them what they want.

Much more efficient.

I do and she never has just one question. I can speak faster than I can type.

I can respond at my own pace...I don't have to answer if I don't want to... and I HATE talking on the phone...takes too long and too much small talk

C'mon, you don't ever get stuck on the phone with someone? I used to think texting was a waste, but now? I think it is great.

Plus, it is IN writing. You can pull it up and show the person than you did tell them.

Of course, the bad part is: It is IN writing... so make sure that your texts don't implicate you in any way.
