How much do you text?

    I know with mine, you can set it where you don't save your sent texts. I got tired of having to clean that out.


    And Mizzou, I'm about to fucking FLOOD you with text messages. :D

    So for the people that don't text, do you have actual phone conversations?

    Before I came to my current gig, I sent maybe two text messages in all my years of owning a cell phone.

    Now that I'm here, I've sent 133 and received 207 in the three months I've owned my current phone. It's not that folks here don't want to talk ... they just got so used to texting when cell phone service was prohibitively expensive (not so much now).

    Way too much. And it's usually worthless garbage. I pay $5/month extra on my bill to cover 250 texts a month. Went waaaaaaay over that a couple months. Decided no more. So my cell phone bill was $35 cheaper this month. :)

    I prefer texting over phone calls. I have bad hearing, and I can barely hear most of my phone calls.

    I just checked...and I've gotten two, sent one in the last month. Not a fan of texting. I can't stand most abbreviations, so I end up taking forever spelling everything out, and I (clearly) don't have the need to get an unlimited plan for it.

    Oh, I never text speak. Everything's spelled out. But the QWERTY keyboard on my Voyager makes it easier.

    I send anywhere between 50 and 125 a day, generally mixed between, generally, three or four people. If I'm really bored, which happens quite often, I'm texting all the time.

    I'm proud of my semi-colon use through texts. It's one of my best qualities.

    I email a ton. I probably use it the way most people would use text messages.

    You have the same phone as me? Damn, that's creepy. I hope you didn't spend as much as I did.
