No. I just don't like it in general. It's so impersonal, the abbreviations, the lack of actual substantial conversation. It's just... what's the point? I don't understand it. I find texting a way for phone companies to make more money off gullable teenage, mostly girls, who don't like to fully type out words or think about or read anything. I don't even like phones. I purposely don't answer phone calls. Give me a good friend, or family, at a gathering with some good music, smokes, and I'm good to go. I don't like cell phones unless for emergency's. I don't like computers that much either, which is why I want a typewriter.

You're dodging the point. The internet has done far more to damage social skills than texting every could and the internet is nothing more than impersonal communications between strangers. Yet you still spend time on here but have some moral opposition, or elitism rather, towards texting. Explain this, don't dance around the question by placing yourself on unjustifiable high ground.

Yeah, people don't get my humor half the time because I use that interweb jokes, I only have one pal who can actually decode my internetual messages irl. Still, I try to keep a little bit of reality in my brrrrain.
