Texting

I'm thinking about giving my phone away.  Why?  Texting, that's why.  Usually I have nothing against texting but right now it pisses me off.

Because texting has replaced talking.  And since it's replaced talking, humans have went a scale down on the evolution meter.  Just when we have this big breakthrough and are starting to express ourselves through voice, we take a step back.  Here are the after-effects of that step.

1) Most guys and girls no longer have the guts to ask each other out in person.
2) Some random person can get away with insulting me because I don't know who's number it is.
3) The longer the contact list, the higher the horse (it's the same for how many text messages, too).
4) Gossip has increased because of texting (theory).
5) Relationships now end over texting (theory 2).
6) Girls have lost some of their pride through texting (did some of them have pride in the first place?) by sending picture messages of them naked.  It's stupid, right?  I don't care if he's the love of your life, don't send him pictures of you with no clothes on.
7) Texting is time-consuming. People take FOREVER to text you back sometimes.
8) Texting has caused deaths.

Number 7 is basically why I want to give my phone away or break it.  My friends take 2 hours or so to answer me.  It's the same for almost everyone else on my contact list.  I feel stupid doing all this waiting.  Sometimes my messages are for something important, too, and I get no reply.  Even my best friend doesn't text me back anymore.  Some BFF right?

This makes me mad at my friends over texting.  So the next time I see them, I don't want to talk to them or hang out.

After all that typing I realize we have a number 9, 10, and 11.

9) Texting wastes gas.
10) Texting stirs unnecessary feelings.
11) People have found another way to be rude.

Seriously,
Wicked
