When wrong number text messages fight back

27. I have scars on each wrist that look like I tried to kill myself with an ice pick. The true story, sadly, is far more lame.

(Apparently this happens to me quite often. Check out these posts: 1, 2, 3. Then see this one for something a bit different.)

Wrong number text message:

From: +19153281605

Ritualistic japanese suicide. I was going to self-immolate, but decided that might be excessive.

The only melissa I know died horribly in a train wreck.  Or I lost track of her after high school.  Either or.

Dude i dont kno you um 141

advice: If ever you get the joyous opportunity to mess with a stranger via the world of SMS, be sure you have an idea of what you’re doing before you start.

observation: Why is it that it’s always remedial high school girls that wrong number text message me? Is it just in the volume of text messages that they send out

  1. And this was when I stopped texting back on the count that I like moving into neighborhoods without having to inform everyone in them that I just have a terrible sense of humor and Yes, I can be that stupid. []
