Texting Teen Falls Down Manhole

**Qalbert** · 2009-07-12 23:35

I had a lol at this.

We all know that walking and texting is a tough combination -- but a Staten Island teen learned the hard way when she fell into an uncovered sewer manhole while trying to send a message.

Now, the family of Alexa Longueira, 15, intends to sue.

The girl suffered a fright and some scrapes on her arms back after she dropped into the hole on Victory Boulevard.

Of course they're suing. God help us if they win.

**Seraph** · 2009-07-12 23:37

Class action counter suit for the dumb prick stealing our air. Post haste.

**Qalbert** · 2009-07-12 23:38

I guess they should have constructed additional pylons.

Are they going to say that there should have been a sign warning of the uncovered manhole? As if she would have seen it. 5 bucks says the mom is a relative of the Egyptian mom who is suing over her slut daughter getting pregnant from swimming in a pool.

Do you think she may have purposely fallen in there to find tubes?

Maybe they intend to sue the phone company, as well.

Shame it wasn't a cliff.

**Athas** · 2009-07-13 00:07

Into a volcano.

**Kiro** · 2009-07-13 00:08

With lava sharks.

**Max™** · 2009-07-13 00:12

Shame she didn't break her thumbs in the fall.

**Null** · 2009-07-13 00:23

Shame the sewer worms didn't eat her.

Or that the sewer water didn't get her pregnant.

Manhole's a funny word, and that sentence rules in general.

**Jer** · 2009-07-13 02:36

She lost a shoe, but managed to keep her cell phone in her hand? Must have had a great grip on it, was probably continuing to text on the way down. 'OMG U R NOT GOING TO BELIEVE THIS!'

Well, shouldn't there be? Shit's dangerous.

**Lbelle** · 2009-07-13 03:13

Agreed. Should be a sign where manholes are. Not everyone looks down, or, as this example so beautifully shows, pays attention where they're walking.
