Booty Texts?

As technology advances and we continue to become more and more isolated and lose our ability to communicate interpersonally, I think that I have experienced a by-product of this revolution late on Tuesday night. I have enjoyed the ability to text family and friends and avoid having to talk to them. Isn't that really what texting is...letting somebody know your thinking about them, but not enough to actually talk to them? Does life move so fast that we can't pick up a phone for a quick hello? I remember trying to win tickets on the radio for a concert when I was 13 and my parents had an old rotary phone on the wall, remember those? Look how far we have come...have we turned into a society that consists primarily of data bits and bytes. How impersonal to receive a text @ 11PM from a ‘random’ that says "Are you still a btm?"...what does this mean? Is he trying to make light conversation? Is he conducting a survey? Is he just curious? OR is this the new dreaded Booty Text? How do I respond? First off, the answer is no and never. But do I play coy? Do I call? Text? Email? Page? Send Smoke Signals? What ever happened to Booty Calls!!! Have they been discarded in the technology dump with wall rotary phones and Atari 2600s? Life and technology move so fast...sometimes I long for that note passed from your friend in Math Class that reads..."meet me by the Swingset"...call me old fashioned, a non-technophile and always, always, always, call me if you want booty...no texts please.
