a lot of the abbreviated text is annoying. I find it much easier to type out the word. I'm on a keyboard anyway. My brain needs to stop and think, if I try to abbreviate in the new text fashion. You will see "lol" a lot from me ... I think it's the only one I use. oh and multitude of periods. But that you will see in books, as it indicates thought, or a pause in thinking.

I just heard a tidbit on TV about today's youth starting to show some problems due to the lack of proper social skills. I ran in to the family room to listen but I missed the segment--darn!!!
Wow. I'm more confused than ever! I don't know what 90% of the initials (that's what I call them) mean that you all are using. When I come across these abbreviations I basically ignore them. Yep, this is way beyond me.
Also, if someone has time to write out several paragraphs of chit chat, then why not just spell it out?
