Her parents must be so proud.

You can't believe everything you read on the internet. There's no way that's true.

That's a lot of text messages.

Impossible based upon the 40 hour a week job + school + sleep, eating...

How about this one...sent them an itemized bill which charged them over $26,000 for texting. The bill came in a box which cost $27.55 just to send the bill.

That one is more believable. Well, except for that part about the guy actually having a wife. I picture him living in his mom's basement.

Speaking of texting, did you guys see the video of the MORON who was texting while driving (a bus!!!) and he slammed into the SUV in front of him? That guy should go to jail and be an example for all the other morons who think they can drive and text at the same time!

...or the women who put on their makeup, or people who smoke, or drink, or eat, or or or or...

Hey!

I can eat a chili dog, figure out the jumble and drive down a windy road with my knee while rolling a fattie!


er...at least I used to be able to do those things. :D

*chuckles* from the article about the record breakers:

April came as a relief to Andes' wife, Julie, who had found his phone tied up with texting when she tried to call him on lunch breaks.

"She was tired of it the first few days into it," Andes said.

I can eat soup(with a spoon) and drive just find.

I dunno, it's certainly extreme, but I think it's possible. I say this because in college I was addicted to ICQ for awhile (instant messaging, nobody used texting in those days.) I would have conversations with 6-8 people at one time, to cover the lag between responses. I'd be typing pretty much constantly from about 8 PM until 2 AM, sometimes later. Plus, if her phone plan is anything like mine, they count both sent and received text messages. And remember how short and inane each single message can be:

What's up?
Nothing. You?
At work. It sucks.
Yeah. Me too.

It's not about logging 400+ messages an hour, it's about having a dedicated block of time each evening to really text at full speed.

I see my kids texting sometimes and its like a whole new language - Kingswood would have a heart attack if he/she ever saw the butchering they do.

Also, it could be she taps out one text and sends it to 20 recipients. Is that counted as one or 20? This could help manage the numbers.

Oh my. I used to be a total ICQ addict lol.

I still have icq on my comp. About once every six months or so I nip on and say hello to old friends. Not that many are still on.

It counts as 20.

Hang on - I'm confused about this as well.
Is she a student? If she is, isn't it slightly irresponsible to have a 40 hour a week job?
I mean something's got to give - she is obviously keeping up with school/ college work if she's getting straight As. Therefore she must be texting at work. Or completely knackered. I hope for the sake of the local people she isn't in a position of any responsibility!

Still. How many of those texts really say anything worthwhile?
A load of LOL and xxx and :) I reckon.
She wouldn't like it here!

ahhhhh - that must be the new, new math.

303k text messages in a month? :eyebrow:

What a rookie. :cool:

Perhaps she runs a text sex line 40 hours a week? And perhaps the teachers who grade her papers are text sex addicts?

Or perhaps she is a cyber bully and texts the whole school at once to send them a picture of the class nerd with her skirt tucked in her knickers at the back?

Or perhaps she just has no other hobbies.

Well, at least the first two options are interesting.......

Maybe she's a drug dealer and sends her client base out a new tariff everyday.
Lets them know her discounted and end of line stock and what the Buy One Get One Free offers are this week.

No wonder she's getting As in economics

And Business Studies no doubt.

Did someone say new math?
