That is partly the problem, all the mobile phone packages in the household have free unlimited text bundles.

The idiot that pays the bills doesn't even text (6 per month....if that)

What ever happened to good old fashioned yelling?

That's how we did it in our house, dadgummit.

She wouldn't dare....I doubt the police would appreciate my habit of gagging her every night so she wouldn't want to make do with a camping bed in the garage

I lived downstairs. My stepmom would just stomp hard on the floor (my ceiling) if she wanted anything. I'd better come running if I knew what's good for me.

On the other hand the last roommate I had was texted by his girlfriend to his computer every 15 seconds: "I haven't heard from you. What's going on?" "Why haven't you called me?" "Okay, *&#^@*(, I'm through with you!" "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." "Please call me."

All the time I'm using his computer to look for work while he's out with friends...
