It was a personal attack. I'm not having it from him or anyone else. Got it?  Good.

Okay.

You know what really annoys me? When everyone in class text messages. It's so annoying. They don't pay attention to the teacher and just spend the entire period text messaging. What's so amusing about text messaging?

Text messaging is annoying, period.  I use it sparingly, and usually to communicate very quick messages (for just one reply).

Around here, if you take your hone out in school, you loose it.  :thumbsup:

I don't text much either. I find it annoying.  :yes:

I use it in school for certain things, but I don't text all the time in class.

It's like that around here too. You just have to be good and quick enough not to get caught. :biggrin:


I remember in 7th grade, before phones were even allowed in school (off or not), during health, someone's phone went off, and the person wouldn't admit to it, so the teacher called security and every single one of us got searched. The confiscated something like 15 phones. :pinch:

Why does it annoy you when someone else is text messaging in class?  I don't see how that takes away from you learning.

Anyways, I'll admit to texting.  But, I RARELY do it in school.  I don't see a point in it.  It's not worth getting your phone taken away.

Back at McGill, a prof of mine attempted to take my phone, I just looked at him, gave a little "Ha!" looked back down and just kept texting :P But dont worry, it didn't affect my learning!

On that note, watch out for that high pressure hurricane to hit Kansas this week! I hear there might be some blowing freezing rain with wind speeds of up to 110 kPa!

Didn't you hear? Pressure units are the new way of measuring wind speeds!

Because those kids who fail and get poor grades in my class do nothing but text message the entier period. Instead of paying attention , they just keep text messaging. Those who do perform well don't text message at class, usually between periods.

Quite frankly its none of your business how everyone else does. Worry about making sure you do well.  :thumbsup:
