Some people "drip feed" several messages instead of sending a single complete message. This drives me nuts when my phone keeps putting out audible alerts from the messages.  Am I just intolerant or does this wind anybody else up? |

I turn off all notifications and look at messages/updates when I'm ready.. Even more importantly i reply to messages when I'm ready
If I'm really not feeling it, i turn my data off for a while  |

"I removed every single notifications on my phone for that reason "
I've done the same: the weight of alerts from drip feed messages, groups and apps was becoming ridiculous. I also put the phone in another room sometimes if I need get stuff done to avoid any temptation. Indistractable is a good book that deals with all this. |

"If only there was a way around the problem, like switching your notification’s off, but science experts warn that such technology is a years away."
So's grammar-checking software apparently  |

Intolerant. Grumpy. Grumpily intolerant.
Sometimes a long block of text is rather boring, I like the short punctuated ones that suggest a stream of consciousness, the person is texting me as they think it. I normally have my personal life notifications muted so I can pick up as and when I want to if I'm going to get annoyed/distracted by texts. |

Yep, when I haven't had my morning coffee 
I wonder if the situation would be different if the sender had to pay per message like in the olden days? Bet that would focus the mind a little!! |
