Several states have begun to fine pedestrians for walking and texting, in order to prevent traffic accidents.  The message is, save the texting for when you’re safely behind the wheel.

In Utah and New Jersey, fines range from $50 to $85.  Reaction to these fines has ranged from LOL to OMG.

Angry mobile customers are blaming their service carriers, who promised them unlimited texting.

Also, a lot of tickets have been issued for sexting while crossing the street, but those were for indecent exposure.

“AT&T-Mobile?”

AT&T announced Sunday that they are buying T-Mobile, which would make them the nation's largest wireless carrier. AT&T will drop $39 billion to acquire T-Mobile, and will also continue to drop millions of calls.

T-Mobile was initially approached anonymously, but figured out the the offer came from AT&T when it was garbled and static-y.

AT&T will pay the money, but first they will force T-Mobile to make dozens of calls to its customer service unit, where they will be told that they’ve been transferred to the wrong department.
