Girl, 13, sends 14,528 texts in a month - UPI.com
This girl is gonna get Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Arthritis by the time she's even 15 years old!
Talk about obsessive texting! And she's killing tons of trees, as well, with the 440 pages cell phone bill. Jesus.
If my hands and fingers didn't hurt so fucking much lately, and there weren't a risk of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Arthritis, I would sure as fucking hell try to set a Guinness world record and beat her at texting! Srsly.

Girl, 13, sends 14,528 texts in a month
Published: Jan. 11, 2009 at 3:07 PM
SILVERADO CANYON, Calif., Jan. 11 (UPI) -- A California father says he discovered his 13-year-old daughter sent 484 text messages per day last month -- one message every 2 minutes of every waking hour.
Greg Hardesty of Silverado Canyon, Calif., told the New York Post his 440-page cell phone bill revealed his daughter Reina had sent an astonishing 14,528 text messages.
"First, I laughed. I thought, 'That's insane, that's impossible,'" said Hardesty, 45, a reporter for The Orange County Register. "And I immediately whipped out the calculator to see if it was humanly possible."
Hardesty said Reina had messaged a core of "four obsessive texters," all girls between the ages of 12 and 13. Luckily, he was on an unlimited text messaging plan or his bill would have been $2,905 at a rate of 20 cents per message, the Post reported.
Hardesty told the newspaper he and his ex-wife have placed restrictions on Reina's cellphone use, ruling she cannot text after dinner.
When it comes to texting, it appears Reina has much in common with a New Zealand teenager. It was reported last month that Hannah Brooke, 16, of Wellington frequently uses up the 6,000 messages she's allowed each month and borrows phones from friends to keep on texting.
