Just Some Questions That End in WHY??

Monday, April 6, 2009 0


  • When you are late for something and you try to hurry up, why does time pass by so much more quickly, even though the song that's playing slows down?
  • On a test, when you're the first one done, why would you check your answers over and over again till the next person gets up?
  • When one person you know is preggers, why are there four more people that follow suit right afterwards?
  • When you upgrade your communication, why does everyone seem to care about your life, and not only through a single medium of communication?
  • When one aspect of life is going good, why is it that by some greater coincidence that something bad happens that needs to be fixed?
  • When in a relationship, why do the sexy females always want to start hitting on you?
  • Facebook has always been a place for stalkers, why is it when they change the interface people just start noticing this fact, and start feeling like a stalker all over again?
  • If strippers are supporting their way through college, why do I have to go a dark lit nasty bar to pay for "community titty", when there's fraternaties full of them that I can still throw dollars at so they can pay off their debts?
  • Why is it so easy to fail, but hard to get back to the average?
  • Why are only the minorities allowed to call each other dirogitory names?
  • If I don't know if anyone read this blog, why do I blog?

Texting......Is It Worth It?

Monday, March 30, 2009 0

I am a big fan of texting, as well as any multimedia messaging that doesn't involve verbal communication but gets the point across.  Lately, though, I have noticed some problems with texting :(  Some relate to the barrier of communication thought, as tone of voice from spoken language gives another depth of meaning.  Text communication loses this, unless your recipiant on the other end  understands you well.  The next issue is the fact of not everyone understanding certain characters within text, or per-say the texting language.  Which you would believe only the old folks would be trying to catch up on.  The worst part of texting fro the phone is the damn price! How do you charge $30 for sending texts when it most likely costs only 20 cents to send as many texts as possible within a month?  Okay, I'll give the benefit of the doubt and make it $2 for the month because of borrowing towers, etc.

I'm not sure I'm ready to quit texting though.  Honestly, I absolutely despise talking to people on the phone.  I don't know why, but it's a great pet-peeve of mine.  I enjoy to hold a conversation with someone, just with my mind clear for minutes at a time.  With a phone stuck to my ear I don't feel as if I'm making head-way while I procrastinate.  Texting allows that time interval of sending, waiting for a response in between each text, which is nice so I can write four to five words, or maybe finish a sentence.  Even better with texting, I don't have he obligation to text back.  When I don't want to talk any more I simply stop texting back, on the phone I must hang it up - that makes me feel rude.
So for what it's worth I can't say whether I am really for or against text messaging....not a big help :D  (makes me feel better)
