Texting It's Not Even A Word

I'm only ten years older than you, but to evolve can't make you younger.

I don't care if I'm 47, 57 or 67. If I see people complaining about current techonology or not getting with the times and adapting, I'm calling you old. Hell, my mother who is 20 years older than me, texts more than me. All she does is send me texts.

What I'm saying is that getting with the times won't make you any younger.
 
Should I be offended? I'm not. It took me a long time to get old, and you're right behind me, sport.

No not at all, there nothing wrong with getting old. What I'm saying is when you get to the point where you are complaining about new technology and constantly talk about the way things used to be, you're out of touch.

Who does that? One thread and a few comments hardly qualify as, "constantly talking about the way things used to be". I would counter the idea that anyone who appreciates, "the way things used to be" being, "out of touch", with the sad reality that anyone that turns their back on, "how things used to be" is out of touch with who they are and where they came from.

Dude's out of touch, on a number of levels. Good luck!

So if your IP was compared to recently banned users, who would you be closest to?

Sure, old man.

Hahaha - I knew you'd go full moonbat, wingnut, eventually. I don't know, man, whatever bogeyman you think I am. I'm the same ol' Dick you can't get enough of, always and only just me, and you know you wouldn't have it any other way.

But seriously, talk to your family, it's not fair to them.

Not sayin' just sayin'.
 
Assari. Where you been?

Yes exactly. And me,even though I get repulsed (And worried about the future of humanity) seeing so many people all over zoning into and writing on their phones, I know I have the choice not to.
But its that more and more people I know or meet avoid or refuse to speak and get me sucked into the whole texting back and forth crap.
Glad to see I'm not the only one here who feels this way.

Weekdays tasks limit my online presence.


I'm sure that you're not the only one who thinks that way.


People need more face-to-face talk and less writing!

I don't mind texting. It's a quick and easy way to notify someone if you can't get a hold on them. This is the modern era so you either have to live and adapt to it or go live under a rock.

Its easier than pressing 1 button and calling them? And after you send a message how do you know if the other person saw it?

Yeah, Hi DW, here's the thing, even though the action is being done with a contemporary device it is still sending a written message.
A Written Message.
Egyptians had that, Greeks had that, Roman had that thousands of years ago. US had it with the Pony Express and that got replace with Morse Code stop:

All forms of written messages.

I think its more of an addiction and a monkey see monkey do trend rather than an advancement in technology.
How many times have you seen groups of people together, families even, all ignoring each other and staring at their little devices?
I don't consider that advancement towards anything other than the decline of humanity.
Speaking on the phone, hearing the other person, that is technology and its effective.
Writing and sending written messages no matter what tool is used be it runner, horse, or Samsung Galaxy is as old as this guy:

See, if 2 people want to sit there and write little messages back and forth that is their business.
But when it comes to communication, the exchange of information, which is what the main purpose of a telephone is, there is no way anybody is going to win the argument that written communication is more effective than verbal.

We can speak for 1 minute and make plans ect or we can write messages back and forth and hope the other person sees it.
Write, wait, read, write, wait, read, fuck, that, shit.

And people if you have a friend or family who doesn't like texting than just pick up the phone and speak to them.
Don't make them sit there writing messages and waiting in between.
It won't kill you. It won't negatively affect your precious little time. You'll get over it. You'll be ok.

Texting has lost popularity in the netherlands, it's all about what's app. And the dutch call it "apping" which I fucking hate. The other day my husband was all "I'm going to app.." and I stopped him and went on a rant about how fucking stupid he sounds.



Today I declined watching a video on a stranger's phone. She was going on and on about some internet show and I was super busy and said I was good. And she was super pushy about it. I was like no no, its kinda awkward to watch videos on people phones. It blew her mind. She was all like, it's only like a minute, and I was saying no thanks.

"But its 2019, this is what we do!" I said not me. She was super pissed. Wow.

Next time I'm over your way, you're going to sit your ass down and watch all sorts of videos on my phone. Fail videos, cat videos, whiskey videos...

But you'll fucking sit there and watch it. Or I enlist one of your girls for help. I'm sure there's one of them that would be more than happy to torture you along with me.
