Texting in the shower

[StarF68]

Apparently there's a good handful of people that text in the shower, and to me that just seems really strange. Some of them say they just kinda keep their phone away from the water and dry their hands before they grab it. Some tell me they keep their phone in a plastic bag so they can text. In any case, it seems to me that you have a problem if you can't put down your phone for long enough to simply take a shower.

What's your opinion of this, do any of you text while in the shower?

[kazumazkan]

for those of you who txt in the shower please stop you have a problem

[BumFodder]

Wow, that really is obsessed.

[Bit]

Anyone who does that has a serious problem.

Posting this from my shower.

[Tateos]

That is ludicrously stupid.

I'd tend to agree. My cousin can't stop texting long enough to play Brave Story with me (Final Fantasy Tactics), and it annoys the hell out of me.

[Magical-Zorse]

I usually have my phone off when I'm at home, let alone in the shower.

[Cootie]

Once it crosses into that realm you really need to think about your life. I mean, if you can't even shower without texting someone then you have a problem. You can put the phone down for a few moments... everything will be okay.

[Drake]

The solution is to stop texting altogether.

[GoryBlizzard]

I also know people that text in the shower, and that to me is pretty sad.

I'd rather focus more on cleaning myself and not risk ruining my phone. My showers on average usually take between 10-20 minutes, which isn't all that long to go without checking my phone.

Once texting becomes obsolete people will be 3D holo conferencing in the shower.

My girlfriend texted me one day while she was on vacation and was really excited because she found out she could text in the shower by putting her phone in a plastic baggie. I told her to text me after her freaking shower. I find texting in the shower to be a bit obsessive, and weird.

Besides, her phone doesn't send picture messages.

Having your phone anywhere near you while you're in the shower is ludicrous. Would it kill you to tell the people you're texting that you're going to take a shower and that they'll get back to you when they get out? Or do they honestly think the world will end when you don't immediately answer back to someone? If you're texting in the shower you have a problem. A big one.

[Yrtnej]

I know a few people who can't do a fucking thing without texting every five seconds. But don't worry, I'm not friends with them. I don't make friends with people that have poor social skills.

[Squidbit]

Yeah... That's a little too much texting. I text people whenever I have shit to say to them. What could I possibly need to say while I'm in the shower?

Depends.

[DP]

If you are going to try and communicate in the shower why don't you just call them?

If it's couples, or at least people who've seen each other naked before, then it would be a perfectly healthy social interaction.

Also, public nudity might be socially acceptable by the time the technology comes around.

[Shadowu]

Please, hot chicks who text in the shower, put your phone under the water after you go 500,000 texts over your 500 texting plan.

$1,000,000 dollars in debt and a wet, dead phone that shocks you and you can't move for the next few days. GREAT!

Yeah, good point. The word "conferencing" just didn't make me think couples, I was thinking business meetings and shit.

But again I suppose it depends on the business you work for.

[Strength]

Right dude? My best friend has fucked up 3 of his phones from texting his girlfriend in the shower. I'm like dude, you can't wait 10 minutes? Are you fucking retarded? Don't cry about your broken fucking phone.

And then we Lol.

[psycho-squirrel]

I don't text at all, I find it pretty useless.

[Doomspire]

Step 1: Visit Psychiatrist every Tuesday to sort out problems.
Step 2: Problem solved.
[What? Still having problems?]
Step 3: People find this problem weird, so don't fucking SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
[Not working either?]
Step 4: Choose one. The gun or the pills.

[SizzleBolt]

I'd text but I'm too busy wanking in the shower.

[Randomguy78]

yeah Sure, why take a half hour trying to type a single sentence, WHEN YOU CAN HAVE AN ENTIRE CONVERSATION 100X FASTER BY TALKING ON THE PHONE! TEXTING CAUSE NOTHING BUT DEATH AND DISTRACTION! I DECLARE ALL PHONES HAVING THE TEXT OPTION REMOVED B Y LAW!

I don't text in the shower because I treasure my phone. If you text in the shower that means you seriously don't care if you kill it with a stream of soapy water.

[TJoyal]

I have a tendency to do this. I don't know. It's not as bad as those people who wear leather protective phone cases at their waist.

[XenonMonkey]

I don't text, so I shouldn't give an opinion.

[Zippy-MyMusic]
