Hey adult, your kid stole your phone!
You ever get a text message from someone and it takes you three times as long to read it and decipher it because they saved 3 letters and 2 seconds by shortening every single word (even 3 letter words) in the text?
I'm reading a 20 word text right now from an adult over 30 and they shortened 11 words..even 2 and 3 letter words. although they left a 12 letter word whole. (go figure)
In the age of smart phones and auto correct on every phone, there is no need to portray yourself as a retard or an invalid or just a person who can't type or spell. It looks as though you got a text from a 10 year old who missed phonics in 2nd grade.
There are though anagrams that will never go away, but I think those are different. they are universal throughout all texting an emailing. Ones such as 'brb' 'btw' 'lol' 'imo' and so on.. Anagrams are different than just being lazy, creative or uneducated.
So, big people, be big, write it out. Your phone will actually do it for you if you let it.
