Hmmm... I suppose this is a third world Gen X thing but back then, phone calls were like 20 cents a minute during peak hours, while text messages were two cents. (For reference the average income was $100 a month. My income then was something like $300 a month.)

So we texted more because it was cheaper. And then it just stuck. I have probably texted more than I called ever since I got my own cell phone in 1998.
