"Texting"


"Texting"

Postby Paul » Jul 12, 2001 @ 1:45pm

ugh... the news in my country have just realised that mobile phone users text eachother. a lot. its 'changing the english language' apparently... no i thought the INTERNET did that, closely followed by the pale imitation called SMS... <br><br>mobile phones are shitty and the way people write shit like "c u l8er!" KILLS ME. its worse when they write an 'abbreviation' thats longer than the original fucking word.<br><br>'internet language' stinks.

I feel the same way Paul. Soon no one will be able to spell any words, like 'through'. THey've already killed that one, it's 'thru' now.<br>This country sucks, and since it's the most powerful the internet is based in the USA, the most ignorant 1st world country in the world.

well.. not for free... they are just making highspeed available to everyone.. we'd have to pay for it once it becomes available.

I'm one of those miserable 56k modem users who never get a better connect than 42, but more often 36k...
