I don't spend a lot of time on the phone, I never was a fan of being on the phone with someone really, because I always find myself wanting to do something else or getting distracted and only half listening to someone else.
I don't particularly like texting either (outside of really simple stuff), because I feel too limited in my responses and I tend to forget about the stupid beep and then people get mad at me for ignoring them.
I would say I prefer to IM. The messages are fast, I can type quickly, and I can say what I need/want to say effectively. Plus if I want to watch tv or wander off for a moment I can come back and the message is still sitting right there for me to read again.
I get kinda pissed off at the people who expect instant responses all the time, or freak the fuck out when I don't say hi every time they log on, and then there are the people who are retarded as fuck and put their own weird meanings into simple responses and get all offended at something you didn't even do. Oh god I'm ranting.
These thoughts feel like they came straight from my brain except I very rarely message people when they log on unless I have a purpose for it because I'm introvert like that. Also no one gets mad at me for not instantly responding to their messages, there may be, but no one has actually called me out on it.
The worst is when you're playing a game when someone calls you. Every time they ask a question it's blatantly obvious you're highly distracted, only goal is to get off the phone. Then you can make plans or chat for a bit, when you hang up it's all wtf did I just agree to do/talk about.
