Am I the only one that doesn't get why people put up an away message such as "lookin up movie times"?

Um, we don't care.

We don't care if you're looking up movie times.

Who the hell puts up an away message saying they're looking up movie times?
By the time they're finished putting the away message up they could be done looking at the movie times already.

Stupid idiots.

Is it to brag that they're going to the movies?

Even though no one cares.

I also saw this away message saying "my potential plans for today: mall with mike then movies then meeting up with brenna"

what the f**k, no one f**king cares.

so have you guys ever had anyone do the stupidest things and put an away message one?

"going to the bathroom"

why do you need an away message saying you're going to the bathroom for 3 minutes. are you afraid someone's going to im you and you're not going to be back quick enough? and the funny thing is that no one's probably going to im you.

I have another question.
So when you put your cellphone/phone number in your away message and tell them to call, does anyone call?

------
It doesn't really annoy me unless I'm talking to them and then they put on an away message such as "lookin up movie times". I'm kind of wondering why they can't do both at the same time.

And sure, I can just not read them.
But I do anyways. I'm just trying to wonder why people do this. It's kind of pointless.

And someone said I care that I care if people put their number in their away message or something? I don't care, I'm just wondering if people really call.

My post isn't really that long. Just spaced out.

yea i like to leave stupid ones like:
"im out saving the planet from alien invaders.
b on by midnight", or something else totally random and stupid.

[sense.n.style]

so agree!

[sm0kinm0nky]

all my away messages pretain to what i'm doing and when i leave my cell there it usually means i'm not home so they can reach me that way.


i like when people leave there numbers in messages so if i need them i can call them

[angelrevelation]

that stuff IS annoying... this girl on my MSN right now... her whole 'title' thing is on what she's planning to do for the day... uggh.

i usually just use the away messages i save... like song lyrics or an inside joke of the day.

Now, when I think back of the times I put up away messages in ICQ, I think I used to be part of those pathetic people you desribed.

Not anymore though. I think if someone is really that urgent to find me, he/she will get a way to contact me OTHER THAN through the Internet.

hahahahah this makes me laugh. i never see these kinds of away messages because i use msn, not aim. but i find it unnecessary when i'm talking to someone online, and they say "brb, i gotta go take a crap" or something similar. i really don't need to know when someone just has to go take a dump.

Well, my away message pretty much alternates between "around" and "away", so I never really saw the point of those types of away messages, especially ones that detail plans like: "Out to Joe's, then going to Anna's, then back here at 3, then mall at 3:30, then maybe to Sam's" or what have you. Seems better just to put something like "Out, be back later this evening."

yeah the ones that go into detail *sigh* I dont like those

I put up aways that are funny...
or just lyrics or something
But they are usually really random and funny
and not like "im in the shower" or w/e

[*jooleeah*]

gigi, that girl sounds pretty freaking spoiled! >:[ people like that piss me off.

[miss barnes]

to answer that one about cell #...yes they do call.

[emazing]

I do that.
Bash me everyone.
