I'm on the older end of the Gen X generation. I think texting is one of the greatest inventions ever. I don't have to talk to anyone on the phone unless it's absolutely necessary, how fantastic is that! Even worse than talking on the phone is video calls. I have one mate of mine always video calls me & gets annoyed when I don't answer. I'm like "why the fuck would I want to look at your big fat head & talk to you on my phone when I can just text you instead". He still does it though. 😂
