Is that the one with Robin Hood and King Arthur?
That's like calling someone and saying "why do you keep talking to me? God, shut up so i can read."
Believe me, I hate it. I have to walk 8 blocks each way and pay a few bucks to do these stupid fucking faxes.
Also, I like this one:

Yup. It's my favorite episode.
The sending is still instant, they just aren't composing them as swiftly as you'd like.
No.
It is like leaving your phone on while you are at home.
You are not obligated to stop everything and hold the phone to your ear in the hopes someone may call.
tell me.
where is this?
that is the best one
You might be able to do it for free at the library.

So then what would a particular IM be? A call or...hmm...probably more like a text.
Someone did call. You just decided to take 5 minutes in order to say hello back.
People change their minds on use or use it for other things, like radio functions or knowing when they have an email?

ohhhh boy
i got the blood lust
I think Ed is correct and I need to stop liking people.
IMs are not like phone calls.
I rather like that you can have a drawn out and more intermittent conversation on it than in most other forms of communication. It's like [chat], but with people I care about. Plus it lets you do other things and just makes whatever that is less mundane.
My branch doesn't offer faxing (only printing and copying).
So to recount the story of this fax...
Maybe 3 years ago I was delinquent with a cell phone. Dumb of me. It went to collections, eventually, and they contacted me. I paid it back in full about a year ago. They removed it from my credit reports (nice of 'em) but apparently never contacted the wireless provider. Several times they've assured me it's a simple mix up and they'll be right on it. I finally got fed up and called ATT Wireless directly. One said he'd contact the collections agency directly and verify I'd made payment. Second said to just fax the proof of payment (the check image, full amount of the debt, which I have... along with a notation that the check was honored and cashed by the agency). I did, and got no response. This person is asking for the same thing and gave me a big, important sounding reference number.
If I don't get some sort of recourse this time around I'm going to have to try to escalate to an executive or something. I've been spending a year telling these people I owe them nothing so that I can eventually give them more money. I have someone ready and willing to take ownership of my T-Mo account so I can grab a 3G S... and I'm willing to sign a 2 year contract. But I can't yet because these fuckers refuse to do 10 seconds of honest office work to determine that this bill has been paid so I can, I repeat, GIVE THEM MORE MONEY.
So frustrating.
Nope.
Sure.
More crazy girls for me.
Agreed, but if one is trying to converse with the other person for the purpose of engaging in a discussion which will indicate the degree of similarity between the two people and spark a desire to date it's mostly head-bangingly frustrating.
chat just got burned
that looks like some crazy dubai shit.
My moneys on that. Or vegas.
but they're listening to every word I say
