Sorry, when I read your subject line my first reaction was:

If I'm not on Facebook are you wishing me a crappy Christmas?

I knew that wasn't the case, but my errant brain comes up with the
strangest things sometimes.

No problem:) It is a song for HAPPY Christmas NOT by 'Queen' but by
something that sounds like them by the muppets.The music is lovely:)

He's your buddy. Maybe he will listen to you. Maybe, but unlikely.
He's got more mental issues than he knows.

Yes, it's great for that. I mainly use it to be warned when there are
cows or bulls on the road, especially black ones after dark :)

"especially black ones after dark." Cow racist often? ;)

If you do happen to run one over, keep this in mind. It was
an accident and "if you kill it, you should eat it."
Don't have it die for nothing.
Just go out and buy a chest freezer, butcher the accidental
kill and have hamburgers and steaks for over a year or two.
:-D

It happens. I came close enough to hitting a big bay horse on a very
dark night. I was on a curvy tree lined country lane and not going very
fast because I was going to take a turn. All of a sudden the horse was
standing right in front of the car.

I went to the nearest house to report it in case it was their horse or
maybe they would know whose it was. The woman who answered the door was
very nice, though expect she would have been ware of someone coming to
their door at that time of night talking about a horse on the road. She
had no idea whose horse it might have been.

If you hit a horse or a cow on the road you might not feel like
butchering it on the spot. There won't be enough left of your car to
carry it home. Even deer can do a number on a car. I know three people
who totalled cars hitting deer, and most whitetails around here are
under 200 lb.

Where I live it's far more likely to run into deer in the dark... if
you run into a cow or a bull you may not live to tell about it. I
very rarely drive at night at dawn or near dusk.

Or just drive carefully, slower and defensively.
50 miles from me yesterday, near Williamsburg on a major highway,
fog and black ice and idiots always driving too fast and close
had an incident. 69 car pile up. 50 people hurt and 11 taken to
hospital. A car insurance company nightmare. LOL Bad morning for
all involved. :(

Most were just joy riding I'll bet. I rarely have a reason to drive
at night, and even in day time I'm never in a hurry.

I drive fairly slowly, also because my car's old. But I always have an

Text messages are made for really lonely people.

Bah. My husband texted me yesterday while I was visiting my mother.
I didn't have to interrupt my conversation with her to receive the
information from my husband. I read it at my leisure.

You can drive the speed limit and still annoy people. lol
Another one is that I always slow down a bit to look before
entering an intersection even if I have the right of way.
That always annoys someone behind me hoping to beat the
light or whatever.

I've seen many people run red lights or ignore stop signs.
A few times, lucky that I hesitated or I would been
"dead right."

These "in a hurry" dummies are the ones that cause crashes.

That's what voice mail is for. No text necessary.
Note: you could have turned off your phone while visiting your
mom.

Disturbingly, MY mom did that to me on Sunday while we were in
the middle of our weekly talk. She heard a beep, indicating
someone trying to call her. She couldn't let it go to voicemail
for a few more minutes. She JUST had to hang up to check.

Very rude, imo. I told her don't bother calling back. I'll
talk to you next week.

Again, I had a flip phone for about 8 years and I NEVER
interrupted a conversation to answer my phone. That's
what voicemail was created for.

It's easier to retrieve a text than a voice mail. Fewer gestures.

Unnecessary. I let technology do the work, so I don't have to.

I used to have a friend who loved to chat on the phone, something that I
have never been all that keen on. He had call waiting and would leave me
on hold while he picked up the other call. After it happened a few times
I just hung up. The first time it happened he called back and said that
we had been cut off. No, I hung up. That happened a few times.

His other problem was his obnoxious bitch wife. They each had their own
phone line. His was dedicated to his computer.... dial up days, so he
would call on her line. She didn't like that and would often pick up
her phone to see if he was using it and then give him shit for using her
phone. He would ask her if she had to use the phone.... well I might....
I got fed up with that and told him so. He whined that he didn't have a
light on their phone like I had on mine to indicate it was in use.

One day he called to chat and assured me that his call waiting was
disabled and his wife was out. She ended up coming home earlier than
expected. He said she had just come it. Within seconds she picked up
the phone and started giving him shit. My filter was off and something
slipped out of my mouth. No profanity or anything like that. More like
Christ, not again. I hung up. He called back a couple minutes later
and told me his wife was furious at me and that I owed her an apology.
Not in this life time. Problem solved.

Depends on how you use it. Handy if you just want to give a message and
don't need an acknowledgement. My daughter sent me a photo of something
by text. I sent the name of a business previously discussed with a
friend.

When I was working, my wife would text me sometimes rather than
interrupt with a call. Usually a simple one sentence comment.
Could be as simple at "appointment changed from 2 to 3"

I have a long time friend that I call every couple of weeks. I always
text her first and tell her I'm going to call. That way the call is not
an interruption but a welcome visit.

I also never take another call while on the phone. I may look to see
who it calling, but the person I'm talking to is my first priority.

That's very creative. For those who don't want to look at the FB
version, there are other versions on YouTube.
