    There are some people that send a lot of pictures over text messages, who want it for the upgraded image sharing quality. That’s a sane enough reason, at least.

    On the bright side, the kind of people who judge other people for their text message bubble color are not the kind of people I want in my life. So at least it’s another asshole filter.
