Either that, or they've become weirdly meta, because I got a lot of random texts last week saying "quit" or "stop" or "unsubscribe". And ONE random text that cursed me out and called me lots of bad names for sending her ("get it through your head I'm a woman!" or words to that effect) texts that were inappropriate in some way.

I felt like replying to that last one to clear my name, but on second thought that seemed unlikely to help, even if there is a real person on the other end.

I once got a random text from someone who probably got a bit drunk and started drunk texting to the list he or she got for spamming people. I'm pretty sure that's what it was because about 4 other people I don't know replied angrily to all.

I still have it on my phone.

There was about two weeks when some robo-caller was spoofing caller ID with my cell phone number. Had half a dozen people call me to say "You called my phone and didn't leave a message?" Spent too much time explaining the exigencies of modern phone scammage. They've apparently gone to the next innocent number on their list, as I haven't gotten any calls lately.

("get it through your head I'm a woman!" or words to that effect) texts that were inappropriate in some way.
I'm guessing penis enlargement?

I don't hate vegans but that person who ate a raw squirrel probably got tularemia.
the link for the what kids are eating article isn't working.
