FAQ

Q: Why do you send these texts?

A: To make people smile. I’ve met so many people who have shown me something to learn in life. Sending them a reason to smile is my way of paying them back. Without them, I wouldn’t be the person I am today.

Q: How long have you been doing this?

A: I’ve done this ever since I had the option to text back in 2003. It was just a simple way to keep in touch with those I left after moving away or those I left after going to a different job.

Q: Do you text every holiday?

A: No. But I do my best.

Q: Do you make these texts up?

A: Every single text I send I use my own little head. It just means more to me if I can put a little of my personality into these texts.

Q: What type of content do your texts contain?

A: Most of the time my texts are based on any holiday. I try to make them humorous just to make people smile. At times they’re a little obscene, but that’s just me. My texts aren’t bias or meant to offend anyone.  If you’re offended, most likely it wasn’t done on purpose and I’ll apologize in advance. Most likely the person next to you will think it’s funny. But like I mentioned, that’s my humor.

Q: What do you use to send text?

A: As of now, I use my Motorola E815 serviced by Verizon to send texts.

Q: Does this cost me money?

A: This costs you your cell phone service and whatever charges they apply for text messages received by a Verizon customer. If you’re a Verizon customer, maybe you have the same plan I have that gives you unlimited texts from other Verizon customers.

Q: Does this cost you money?

A: Yes. My phone, service and this website. It’s worth seeing how this can turn out. But you can help me out by donating here if you like.

Q: Are you affiliated with Verizon since you have Verizon service?

A: No. They won’t even accept my application.

Q: How can I join?

A: You can subscribe here or click on the link to the right that says “Subscription”. Just put in your first name, last initial, email, cell provider and your cell number. I’ll text you within the next 24 hours and all you have to do is reply back with a text to confirm the subscription.

Q: Am I required to do anything?

A: Yes. All I’m asking from you is you comment my texts. I don’t care if you hate it or like it, just comment it. If you miss three texts in a row, most likely I’ll take you off my list with or without notice or warning. I’m only doing this because I only have a limited amount of slots and if you can’t help me out, I know there are others willing to.

Q: Are there age restrictions?

A: Unfortunately yes. I will be requiring you to be at least 18 years of age. Some of these texts were not meant for minors and I don’t feel like thinking up of different texts for specific groups.

Q: Are you going to sell my information?

A: No. See Privacy Policy.

Q: How do I get out of receiving these texts?

A: You can do one of a few things:

  • Click the link to the right that says “Subscription”.
  • Or simply text me with the word “unsubscribe”.

Q: What are your limitations?

A: As of now, my phone holds 1000 contacts. Once that is filled, I’m not sure what I’m going to do if there are more people who would like to subscribe. If anyone has an idea, feel free to contact me. I just hope that another phone will come around that can hold more than 1000 contacts.

Q: A 1000 contacts? Isn’t that a lot?

A: Right now I have almost 200 personal contacts. We’ll see if it gets out of hand.

Q: Are you crazy?

A: As most will say, yes. But I call it being adventurous.

Q: How come my question I want to ask isn’t in this FAQ?

A: Sorry. You’re just gonna have to contact me.
