Friends Don't Let Friends Drink and Text

Hi my name is Denise, and my last text was one hour and 52 minutes ago.

There are obvious advantages to texting. However it needs to be said that there are times that texting is appropriate and there are times that texting is not appropriate.

Never text:

1. When Driving: Its not safe, it doesn't need an explanation
2. When Walking: Just ask the British
3. When Drinking: Your ex does not want a text from you, let alone a text at 3 AM. Neither do any of your other friends, unless they are of course drunk (and of age) as well.
4. When Asking Someone Out: Unless you're 13, you need to do this face to face. Grow some balls (even if you're a girl); getting turned down builds character.
5. When Dumping Someone: See 4. Making someone cry builds character.
6. In Class: It's rude to your teacher and your classmates. The keys making clicking noises, and if I can put my cellphone on silent then so can you.
7. When In A Fight: Because it is sometimes hard to decipher the true meaning of a text, it is better to fight when you can at least hear each other. That way things won't be blown out of proportion.
8. At Work: This applies to people that are in direct sight of either their bosses or customers. Anywhere other than that (office, cubicle, bathroom) it's fair game.

This is a basic list, feel I left out any? Leave a comment, I'm sure I will be revisiting this topic.
