Textacular Tuesday

It's Textacular Tuesday!!!! Woo hoo!!!

On Textacular Tuesday we will examine common text pitfalls, correct etiquette, and some funny examples.

In today's world most people text to get to know one another, instead of talking on the phone, or instead of actual human interaction.  After a little while the texts start flying, and you have all kinds of people you're texting in your inbox.  Many of those have no contact information associated with them.  Honestly, half of these people you will never hear from after a few texts.  (Maybe that's just me. :-/ )  Eventually you get tired of having the thread in your phone and you delete it.  You feel clean after the purge, and I'm sure that helped my phone be faster or some shit.  All is good in the world...until this happens....





Damn.  There goes my chance at a sugar daddy.  Silly.  All of this could have been prevented with one simple action.

Always add the person's first name, where you met them, and a photo to your contacts.

This is regardless of how long you may think you'll talk to them.  I say add the first name, but you can feel free to add the last name if possible.  I don't give out my last name to people because I don't want my social security number stolen and shit.  Adding where you met the person can definitely help jog your memory if they decide to text you in the future.  If you never hear from them again...who cares?  One more unused contact in your phone won't kill you.  Also, this comes in handy if you really don't like the person, and don't wish to speak to them.  I normally add "Creeper" as their last name if I don't want to talk to them anymore.

So there is my tip.   How many of you have ever been a victim of the unknown number text?
