Yesterday I met some friends downtown. While on the train I decided to text message 2 of my friends on their cell phones. We're all Trekkies, so I choose to send the expression that Klingons use when going into battle:
"It is a good day to die".
The first friend got the message and was amused. I do not realize at that point that the second friend had switched carriers and his phone number had been given away. A few minutes after the message was sent, I got a phone call, and my friend's ID showed on the display, but it was a 15 or 16 year old girl who was rather upset that I had sent such a terrible message to her. She insisted I apologize, which I did, as one could see how that message , taken out of context, might be disturbing.
