get a life lusr

It’s a good thing that Nick Andes and Doug Klinger haven’t been wasting their time like so many people these days.

The two Pennsylvania men have just set the world record for sending the most text messages in a month.

Yeah, it does sound impressive, doesn’t it?

And we’re not talking about immature teenagers; these guys are 29 and 30. Their parents must be thrilled.

The Texting Twosome banged out 217,000 text messages in March to go down in history. That’s an astounding — or pathetic — average of 7,000 texts per day.

“Most were either short phrases or one word, ‘LOL’ or ‘Hello,’ things like that, with tons and tons of repeats,” Andes said proudly.

The story on their, uh, accomplishment described them as “practically nonstop texters for about a decade since they attended Berks Technical Institute together.”

Wow; I guess they think that beats actually having a life.

At some point in time, these doofuses (or is the plural doofi?) will have a frozen thumb incident and thereby discover what the difference is between humans and the other great apes.
Opposable thumbs.
Start practicing the four finger computer maneuver.

At that point these two mouth-breathers will find an attorney who never heard of St. Thomas More and will sue, sue, sue.
