from a 602 phone number, Saturday, October 25, 1:06 AM

He Put you through hell. if u need sex pick me..
from a 602 phone number, Saturday, October 25, 2:04 AM

I lost all respect 4 you. sorry u have fun
from a 602 phone number, Saturday, October 25, 3:19 AM

I don't see how you can accuse some other guy of putting Leila through hell when you're the one telling her you lost all respect 4 her. It sounds like Leila is just getting emotional abuse from all sides. Plus, does it appear to anyone else like 602 lost all respect 4 Leila just because she didn't pick him for sex? What a baby.

I wonder how God feels when he reads text messages like this one.

from a 703 phone number, Monday, October 20, 9:21 PM

I love texts where people tell Leilas that they're proud of them. This restores my faith in humanity (and texting).
hey i had so much fun saturday night! u will def have to come with us again! did u get chino's socks back?
from a 256 phone number, Monday, October 20, 4:56 PM

Remember on the OC, how some of the douchebag jocks used to refer to Ryan as "Chino"? I really hope this text is a reference to Ryan Atwood.
Where r u now? Txt me.
from a 951 phone number, Sunday, October 19, 11:17 PM

What us our plan today? Later this pm? Pls call me.
from a 951 phone number, Monday, October 20, 9:51 AM

Are u coming to rc? Pls call.
from a 951 phone number, Monday, October 20, 8:59 PM

951, I find you just a little too concerned with the minute details of Leila's life plan. It's kinda overbearing.
Hi. How are you?
from a 248 phone number, Sunday, October 19, 9:51 PM

Fine. Ready for a nap, mostly.

Sunday, October 19, 2008

Its jas. We go old bay. PLS BE THERE.
from a 973 phone number, Saturday, October 18, 10:09 PM

Probably the Old Bay Restaurant in New Brunswick, NJ ("Where Every Day is Mardi Gras"). I believe 973 is NJ. Right, Leslie?
Coffee in the morning i an tired and going to sleep let me know
from a 510 phone number, Saturday, October 18, 1:38 AM

The problem here is that, if 510 is going to sleep, she won't know if Leila wants to do coffee in the morning until it already is the morning. So that could have a real impact on when 510 wakes up. Like, if Leila doesn't want to do coffee in the morning, there's no sense in waking up at 9 AM on a Saturday (when you're not even going to sleep until 1:38 AM). Unless 510 wakes up at like 4 AM to check her text messages, she has a real problem on her hands.
hey guys its kenz c im using my back up fone til my fone is fixed tomorrow
from a 703 phone number, Friday, October 17, 10:14 PM

I don't have a backup phone. Should I? Kenz makes it sound like something that everyone has, obviously. Am I a luddite, after all?
FWD: Hey jane, it's allie. Study group for econ at the motley if youre interested.
from a 603 phone number, Tuesday, October 14, 9:11 PM

I think Jane, Allie, and Leila go to Scripps. Because obviously they're in college, and Scripps is the first college that comes up on Google that has a place called "The Motley." That's my sleuthing work for you.
Hey wat up
from a 310 phone number, Tuesday, October 14, 8:16 PM

Lying around in bed, feeling nauseous, procrastinating on taking out my air conditioner (yes, I know it's October). Wat up with you, 310?

Wednesday, October 15, 2008

wana beach it? ur probably at work.
from a 619 phone number, Monday, October 13, 6:34 PM

let me know if u feel like getting out.
from a 619 phone number, Monday, October 13, 10:42 PM

At 6:34 PM on a Monday in October, I pretty much ALWAYS feel like beaching it. And I pretty much NEVER actually do so.
Do you want me to make you some thing out of paper mache?
from an 815 phone number, Monday, October 13, 3:21 PM

Hi...hows it hanging?
from an 815 phone number, Tuesday, October 14, 8:23 PM

Leila...
from an 815 phone number, Wednesday, October 15, 8:45 AM

See, one per day is a more appropriate texting frequency. Let this be a lesson to you, 360. And, yes, 815, I would love if you would make me something out of papier mache. A castle would be ideal, thank you.
Hey ugky
from a 360 phone number, Tuesday, October 14, 10:21 PM

from a 360 phone number, Wednesday, October 15, 2:26 PM

Can u give me tiffanys numbes please
from a 360 phone number, Wednesday, October 15, 2:30 PM

Hey r u at lunch
from a 360 phone number, Wednesday, October 15, 3:59 PM

Hey did u get out of schull already?
from a 360 phone number, Wednesday, October 15, 5:12 PM

Over the past 24 hours, 360 learned how to type "ugly" correctly, and I nearly threw my phone out the window. Can you please be a little more selective in what you text Leila, 360? The sheer quantity is exhausting.

Monday, October 13, 2008

your a nimrod
from a 360 phone number, Sunday, October 12, 5:24 PM

Now it's 360's turn. Reclaiming the word for nimrods everywhere. Right on, 360. This has been a weekend of reclaiming.
Did gordon finish the ace
from an 843 phone number, Saturday, October 11, 10:25 PM

Maybe 843 meant "the race"? A race is a thing that someone may or may not finish.
Yeah yea yea
from an 843 phone number, Saturday, October 11, 3:55 PM

She loves you
Yeah, yea, yea
And with a love like that
You know you should be glad.
FWD: FW:Msg::Fwd:FWD:FWD: See wat ppl wnt from u! 1=a baby 2=anotha chance 3=love 4=kiss 5=friendship foreva 6=sex 7=lap dance 8=date 9=hug
from a 404 phone number, Saturday, October 11, 3:15 PM

First of all, this is the randomest list EVER of things to want from someone. I mean, "lap dance"? What is that doing in here?

Furthermore, I think the way this is supposed to work is that everyone to whom you forward this texts you back with a number. But at the point where they're doing that, can't they text you back with an actual word? Isn't it as easy (and more accurate) to send a text asking, "What do you want from me?" thus leaving them the open-ended opportunity to text back, "The book I loaned you," or, "Your rosy complexion," or "A baby"?

I guess it's not okay to send someone a text message saying, "I want you to give me a lap dance," but it's totally fine to send them a text message saying, "7."
Hi bitch!
from an 832 phone number, Saturday, October 11, 12:27 AM

832 is 'reclaiming' the word from its negative connotations. Way to stand up for womyn, 832.
