    "I DO NOT love that you think so many things revolve around you.  I know you're bitter.  I get it.  But I'm over your feelings." The best person on the internet ever!
  • I car dance and sing!
  • If its something short and on weekends,then I sing. If it's during work hours or a longer drive, then I'm listening to my audiobook. Of course I do all of this while texting and nesting ;) jk on the last part.

    I want to do a little more than slap.

  • I'm not going to be able to let this go... to the nestie that picked Text/FB/Nest while driving... do you not realize what a fucking moron you are?  Do you not realize how dangerous that is?  You're going to feel like a real asshole when you kill some kid, or anyone really, because of your stupidity.

    I chose that option, but it isn't what you think. My car has Sync in it, so I text through that. Never once do I pick my phone up, nor look at it. It is in my purse the whole time.   But I don't FB or Nest.

    Oh, so you just talk and it texts?  That's a bit different.

    I love how fired up you got MOA. More people need to feel this way. If it wasn't voice texting (which is much safer, BTW @brij2006), I would have been in shock. H and I made a pact/pledge/promise to not text while driving, we've seen too many terrible accidents caused by this (And known a teenage girl who killed a child in a crosswalk because she was distracted. So heartbreaking) that I just cant stomach the thought of ever risking it. Even if it's a quick peek to see what someone says, that's really all it takes for a tragedy to happen.

  • If it can't be done through Sync while driving, then it waits. Even when it comes to answering a phone call. If I don't have my phone hooked up, then I won't answer it. It's just not worth it.

  • If I'm going to or coming from work, I sit in silence, most days. If I'm going to the mall on a Saturday, I am belting it out.

    And anyone who texts and drives needs to reevaluate how selfish they are. Your text is more important than my life, my husband's, the kid who lives down the street, etc? Fuck you.
