im starting to encounter this alot. its usually recognizable but the first letter in every sentence starting with a capitol latter. you say "hey bob" and they respond back "Hey." no one usually types like that so its probably their phone doing it for them.
anyway i feel weird talking to them. like i dont want to force a conversation and have them have to type alot on their phone. also i cant ask any of them how they feel about it because that would be awkward. maybe they like typing on their phone and thats why they use it, or maybe they are just trying to get away from their computer but keep on just in case.
any thoughts on this retarded thread?

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

I use the T9 for text, I have just never used it for IM programs. I know what texting costs, I was just wondering how valuable it would be to be able to use AIM or MSN for conversations on a cell.

some people are just textaholics and it kind of pisses me off. obv texting is practical in some situations when you need like one thing. for example, your friend is on a booze run and you need an extra 6 pack, its easier to just text. but a big pet peeve of mine is when people try to stike up a conversation by texting.

If you have AIM on a regular cell phone 'rilla will just send you so many msgs that your phone freezes and you have to block him.

If they have their mobile IM enabled then feel free to talk. If they don't want to txt so much they can turn it off.
Too easy.
