The vile habit is surely at it's most representative here. Though I've seen some esl teachers indulging just as excessively...

the vile habit costs around 5 cents a message, while talking on my phone for 30 minutes can blow through 20,000 won.

If saving money is wrong, I don wanna be right!

When you go back to your home country you might be surprised to see that text messages have been introduced there too.

I prefer texting to 1,000 people all talking on their phones at the same time. As long as the sounds aren't on, I think it's great.

A guy posts about something here that annoys him, and you guys jump all over him? How does his post AFFECT your life? We all have trivial things that annoy us unnecessarily.
