My sister is a techno-freak.
When it became the norm, she thought texting was fabulous. My retort of course is that its ridiculous,you have a PHONE in your hand!
Now, to take the sublime to the ridiculous, she has " Speech Texting" where you speak into the phone..... and it writes out and sends a text of what you said.
That kind of schitt makes blood squirt out of the corners of my eyes!
