that girl was just dumb, and 17,500 text is ridiculous! i mean i love my phone and would hate to not be able to text or check s2ki when im at school or work on my iphone but im pretty sure i can tell time on a clock and read a newspaper. but maybe thats just me

i know im way up there around 4000 a month, and that gets pretty annoying. I cannot imagine that much. Your phone would constantly be going off

I'd be surprised if I send 583 text messages in one year.

I do it if I'm in the middle of something and don't have time to hold on to the phone for 5-10 minutes straight, but usually if I have something important I need to talk to someone about, I just call them.

eh armatures... Back in the good old days I had about 37,000 texts a month. That was the most I had. Have a picture of the bill somewhere at home too. Good thing it was unlimited. Now its just the gf not 8-10 girls at the same time like it used to be.

Take away my internet connection for a couple days and I will lose it. Makes me feel so disconnected from the world.

yeah the best ive gotten was around 9k
im usually around 4k at the end of every month

i use to have a couple weeks where i would average around 500 texts a day (thats the size of my inbox)
but that would be just for a couple days at a time.

I don't care how many girls you were talking to, 37,000 texts in a month is realistically more than one every minute you were awake. Aka you were a giant loser.
