text me...okay?

i read this article today on yahoo about a girl who's father took a hammer to her cell phone because of the phone bill.

can you believe this girl? their phone bill was over $4000!!!!

apparently she was texting her ass off during her classes.

her parents thought the feature had been disabled, so the father smashed her phone with a hammer.

a bit drastic, but okay.

oh, and they grounded her for the rest of the school year. like that's going to do her any good! the school year ends in, what, two months? oooh, thats, like, way harsh.

NOT.

they shouldve said "youre grounded until school starts in the fall. and by the way, youre going to get a summer job and all your paychecks are going to help us pay off this ginormous phone bill. one last thing: you want a cell phone? youll have to pay for it yourself." thatll teach her a lesson. a real lesson.

needless to say, this will never be happening to me. ive got The Company probably watchin' my ass from a frickin' sattelite in space. this is a paid gig, but theyre paying for my new life, too. i can just imagine what would happen if i racked up a phone bill like that.

pink slip.

and a boot mark on my apple-shaped butt.
