The insurance company for which I used to work had pages of acronyms we had to learn. It must have sounded funny to an outsider to hear us talk in acronyms.

My son thinks I'm weird and not even remotely cool as a result. Do I care? No. So, yes I'm simply old I guess and have fond recollections of my English (nee Language) teachers rapping me on the knuckles with any "innovative" spelling/vocabulary while standing at the blackboard diagraming sentences (there's some class fun that I don't think is done any longer in the school systems)! I'd probably have nightmares about Ms. Pruitt if I did incorporate textspeak into daily language and/or writing... or perhaps I should merely thank Ms. Pruitt for allowing me to "know" better? :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860821905669551767.post-38030617568942643012008-04-29T16:00:00.000-04:002008-04-29T16:00:00.000-04:00obama says, "i did not know that man, rev. wright....obama says, "i did not know that man, rev. wright."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860821905669551767.post-36107959486156321362008-05-01T08:49:00.000-04:002008-05-01T08:49:00.000-04:00I use text message, but know a couple of abbreviat...I use text message, but know a couple of abbreviations like TTYL. lol.
