If you're over the age of thirty and/or have been living under a rock for the past 6 months, than you probably have not heard of the website TextsFromLastNight.com. The texts are sent in by people who wake in the morning "to find regrettable messages sent to or from their cell phones". The receiver then sends the discovered text into the website. The copies of the messages do not show the phone numbers, but only area codes. The texts are often sexual, random, and/or involve drug use. While TFLN has many "blackout drinking, sex, and vomit stories", there is also an extended discussion taking place about morality. The texts show how humans "interact with drugs and alcohol". "We see the cause and effect of last night’s party, and we can see a real-time weighing of these actions." However, there is concern that peoples' actions and texts will be affected by the existence of the website. But rather than overanalyze it, just enjoy the sheer ridiculousness of the site.
