In this case, it probably isn't the case, Donzo, because it's not a response to conflict or a "Well FINE, I'm OUTTA HERE!" message.


That's good stuff.:lol

Wow....yeah.  Seriously though, teenage girls are insane about texting rather than calling.  However, if it was my ex-girlfriend she would call 5 times in 5 minutes, and then send 10 text messages.  I don't think you older boys understand the damage that girls can rain down by jst clicking a few buttons on a phone.


For the record my bill was only $150 something which I paid in full to my parents, and 90% of that was just received texts not outgoing, but it is what it is.  I personally can't stand texting or cell phones in general.

Yup, Nirvana is right here.

The phone company's new cash crop is text messaging costs.  And because you have no choice as to whether or not someone sends them to you, the phone company makes it as difficult as possible to block the service.

What's wrong with the $44 remainder in this $644 bill.  Sounds about right to me.

Yeah, man.

You got roped/HO'd/cherry picked, vulched, and jolly-stomped, :D but you're supposed to get ganked by girls at that age. Learn from this, and move forward, young man.:D

Ahhh yet another reason to not give a cell phone to kids.

At least your mum finally had text messaging blocked.  Now if thinks to just take the cell away and have you use the olde pay phone like we had to do in the olde dayze... :D
