Screw your generic mass texts

[christopher575]

Yesterday, I woke up over an hour late because the radio portion of my clock radio died. The idea of getting a new alarm clock makes me sad. I've been using this one since elementary school. I'm used to it. I can set it in my sleep.

I turned the alarm portion on last night to see if it still works, and woke up to its obnoxious sound this morning at 6:30. I dozed back off and was enjoying interesting dreams when I got a text message at 7:30. Of course I know I could turn the ringer off when I go to sleep, but I leave it on in case something important comes up. You know what's not important at 7:30am on a Saturday?

Happy saturday 2 u!

What the hell? Now, it's true that the sender is on the East coast, but I'm quite sure he's heard of time zones. I would have been fine with a 7:30am text message saying, hey, stuck in ur neighborhood for a while, want coffee? But I honestly have no need for a poorly-timed, generic warm and fuzzy.

And don't get me started on the stupid holiday wish texts.

Oh my.

Hey, does the AM band still work? You could wake up to the constant time checks and news wheel of KOMO or KIRO.
