my parents dont text. for christ sake my mom cant even check her voicemail correctly.

and when my mom is on her cell phone she yells for some reason even if reception and bars are full. i dont get it lol

she uses it more like a beeper, she rarely picks up and if she does she's like "lemme call you from a land line!!!"


HAHAHAHAHA I LOVE THAT, "LAND LINE"

my parents don't text. hell, they don't even leave their cell phone on unless they need to use it or leave the house for an extended period of time. i asked, "why don't you leave your phone on all the time?" "we only use it in emergencies." "yeah, but what if someone calling you is HAVING an emergency??" "...."

My mom is really big with the shortened grammar when she sends texts, I have no idea why. She has a Blackberry with full keyboard and I keep getting texts like "hope 2 c u n bun tmrw, call me whn u get this thx". I hate that


am i the only one that uses good grammar when texting? i don't shorten anything except for the typical ones- lol, wtf, txt, msg, ffs. it's been a bad habit since i got my first cell phone in high school. i always trim them down to keep them under the word count limit for 1 text in android.. it's quite a process. kinda defeats the purpose of texting, now that i think about it.

Dad: Lulu still up?
Dad: Pare you still up?
Me: Who the hell is Lulu and Pare?
Dad: "ARE" you still up. Keep pressing wrong keys with my fat fingers and it's autocorrecting.
Me: Just call me.




LOL.. after reading these, I've come to realize parents are so adorably cute.

Same here...my dad built weapons. Now he's just a vegetable and watches the weather channel all day.

My mum only learned to text about a year ago, but thankfully she lives in fuck-off-nowhere hippyville, and has no mobile service for the most part.

My dad is like what Nate described. "Only use a mobile phone in emergencies"

LOL.

My money's on some TV exec planting this web site with a TV show already in production.

My parents got rid of their home phone and now both exclusively use their cellphones. I find that a lot more people are starting to do this.

I haven't used a land line regularly in seven years, and haven't had one at all for the last two.
