Omg Texts

Alright. People may disagree with me on this one, but that's okay. Shit happens. Texts are the epitome of a crappy excuse to not make a decent phone call. To me, they lie on the shelf of annoyance right in between improper apostrophe use and the sheer stupidity of using the letter "z" to display the plural form of a noun or nounz. So, texts are simply annoying. Or should I say, "Txts r smply annoyn." I believe that it's less annoying to call the individual rather than text. It takes longer, at least on my phone, due to the fact that the keypad is small for my somewhat wide fingers. Pardon me that a Blackberry isn't my first choice for a phone, nor would I invest in purchasing one to make my life easier with distributing texts or emails. A phone is supposed to only make calls! Why all the added crap? Besides if you are going to send emails on your phone...I have one word: pathetic. I'm sorry but you need to send that email, that prompt, that fast, that instant? That bad? Really? You sure? Okay.
Then get your ass to a computer!

Again, going to my point of WHAT is the point? There are three main reasons as to why texts serve no purpose in this life or the next. There is one and only one purpose as to why text messaging was designed. It is as a scam for cellphone companies (Verizon, AT&T, etc.) to charge parents up the ass with this waste-of-time way of messaging so that their kids will be deemed as "cool" in school...lol that rhymes.

Sure, one may get to the point just by putting in the text something like, "going to the party?". But I really think it's more courteous to make the call. This is applicable especially when one gets a text such as, "Are you ok?". If you want to know how things are with a person, one should just make the call...not give the person a chance to literally spell out their problems through a text message. Geez.

It's one thing just sending the text, but at most times, it's deciphering the stupid thing. At times, I receive a text and I have to decode it. That's the core reason as to why texts are annoying. Take the previous example of "Are you ok?". Sure, that's what the sender means, but what the receiver sees is "R u k?" sometimes without the damn question mark, man that pisses me off. When I read a message, I would greatly appreciate the easy flow of eye movement from left to right while reading. Similarly as how you are reading this blog, any book, email, newspaper, magazine, or even the "missing child" description on the back of a milk carton.

Just imagine if I spontaneously wrote this as if it were a text, or should I write txt? I'll have at it. This ought to yield good results.

Over my years of study of the native language, I have deciphered what is conveyed through the correspondence.
Rough translation : You see? I prove my point. Great example right? Too complex to understand. Just write out statement. Don't be lazy.
While reading a text, I don't want to feel like Thomas Young translating the Rosetta Stone...

The last time I used a text I wanted to put down "hah" instead of the usual "lol". Well, the ingenious use of the keypad displayed its failure since it didn't pick up on the second time I pressed on the 4 button, which displays the letters: g,h and i. So what I sent was "Hag". That was the end of my texting career. I realize it is an epic fail on my part since I didn't read what I sent but hey, just shows how that mistake would never have happened if a phone call was made.
All I have left to text is "omgwtfbbq" to that situation.

Btw...we should eliminate texts and bring back good 'ol telegrams.
