saRAH

STFU ALL OF UZZ….IM REALY CONFUSEDDDDD RYT NAW SUM OF U SAY VAGUR IZ GOOD ND SUM SAY IPHONE ROCKZ….OMGG!!!! FUK U IM GTN IPHONE!

This is a perfect example of how a pubescent teen spells these days. Hell, saRAH is probably a 20-something. What are you even trying to say? I’m so confused. Sure, this sort of exchange is fine over SMS, but when it crosses into the classroom that’s when you know there’s a serious problem. I have a few English teacher friends and they’ve told me how bad it can get with kids in HS. Some of them won’t even accept assignments if they see a “LOL”, “THX” or any other text abbreviations.

What’s wrong with kids these days? They’re lazy and fat. Can’t spell. They die playing video games for 30+ hours. They know more about what’s going on with the cast of The Hills than they do about, well, anything that’s actually of importance to mankind. Dumb kids. It reminds of that AT&T commercial.

  • Haha! I would be personally offended (as I am a teen), but I’ll take this blow in stride as my fellow comrads have adapted a much lesser and confusing english-speak rip off. But can you blame them! You oldies provided us with such luscious devices and it’s only natural that we would take it to develop our own language! We’re polyglots! When the war begins even if you do intercept our messages you won’t be able to read them… Hahaha!
