Why do you use short hand? (by AprilLove)
@AprilLove: Yea see i dont like that either. its very annoying :/ i can see why shorthand texting would annoy you. i suppose im just use to it.. but.. the people who have texted me know i only shorthand it when im at work or on the go.

I use SOME short hand. Like lol, lmao, w/ or w/o.. sometimes you might catch a omg. This was all the stuff that FIRST came out.. now its gone overboard & out of control.

@AprilLove: yea i agree i use the standard shorthand words. i actually never use rofl, smh, pmsl, and whatever the hell else there is.
(43 / M-F / Arizona)I usually have to ask what that means..makes me feel a lil dumb...'..smh...pmsl...tbh...jmo...???
Some people use it cuz there phone will only send 160 characters per text. Some use it to not make a text look so long, who wants to read a novel on every message? Its part of the world today, just how it is...just like sagging pants
yeh i have to do it sometimes cus i only get so many letters in a text cus my phone is pants
Who needs to send more than 160 characters a message? I can't even read short hand. What is jmo? Ikr? I cant read this sh¡t!
