I’m not sure what all the hullabaloo is about texting. All the kids are doing it and many adults. There is this texting shorthand that I just don’t get. Here is an example.

DILLIGAD - Do I Look Like I Give A Darnn?
BFF - Best Friends Forever
IJWTS - I Just Want To Say…
J4F - Just For Fun
WDYMBT - What do you mean by that?
YGTBK - You’ve Got To Be Kidding

What the hell kind of language is this. I got a text message the other day and had to call to get a translation. Am I getting old?

Here’s a text for you.

IUW2T2MCMOTP

(Simply translated-”If you want to talk to me, call me on the phone.”)
