Clear the Roads

The following is a conversation between my writing prof and one of my classmates:

P: Are you texting?
S: Jeez, some people can text all hour, but the one time I text I get caught!

It's not like I'm not listening. I can text and drive at the same time; why can't I text in class.

I can tell you what you have been saying, I've been taking notes.

P: I don't even know what I've been saying.

Then why are we coming to class....
