Am I the only young person that does not know how to text? |
|
My sister and most of my friends do it and I see people all the time doing it. I have a cell phone that I sometimes use but most of the time I forget to take it with me and when I do have it I hardly ever use it. I sometimes think I should learn how to.

2. Well, if 30 is still considered young, then no..... |
|
I think I've sent about 2 or 3 text messages in my entire life.

I'm almost there and I refuse the "middle-aged" stigma. I am young - I will be at heart forever....

3. It's easy to learn, and kinda addictive. |

5. I'm addicted to it, too, and I never thought that would happen. |

I used to think that texting was pretty annoying. Now I do it all the time, and it can be a lot of fun.
Another geezer, checking in. :patriot:
:hi: Richardo!

8. the one thing I will say is that using a 12-key cel-phone keypad to text is a P.I.T.A. |
|
click-"H"-click-"E"-click-click-"L"-pause-click-click-"L"-click-click-"O". :eyes: :crazy:
I imagine it's a lot easier on a QWERTY keypad like on a blackberry.

9. nope, not really young (30) , but I don't even have a cell. |
|
It's my own sort of "liberation" in a way. I'm not perpetually accessible, which is quite satisfying most of the time.

16-year-old uses her cell phone for. I once took her and two of her friends out to dinner and had to tell them to put the phones away. They were texting each other across the table.
