Try re-reading that bit...

Short of sending 2 text messages, my first phone had an 80 char limit IIRC (10 years ago ), so for the sake of putting a few extra letters and paying double the money, it got cut down.

Ah, yea, forgot about the days when messages were so small.

There was a teacher that applied to get a job to my school, where the whole thing was in that 'text' shit.

I have a friend who talks like that online.

Unfortunately, when he does try to write a proper sentence, he usually gets it wrong.

In fact, he's not really my friend anymore.
I once got a text from my dad and he didn't end the sentense with a dot.
Haven't talked to him since.

Lol, I mean he doesn't know that "awe" isn't a verb, has no idea what plurality is, and switches tense mid sentence. You'd get a headache yourself trying to read his essays.

You sir, need to read the following.

Steps to gain a little enjoyment out of my post in this thread.

1) Turn on your sarcasm detector.
2) See other posts by me.
3) Realise it was a joke.

I don't quite understand the whole text speak phenomenon. Sure it takes half as long to write but it takes five times as long to read.

text speak should only be used for mobile/cell phones and i don't see the point in using it on the internet. For one, you can type faster on a keyboard than using the 9 buttons on a phone and also some of the things when typed on a keyboard, take more keystokes, thus no time saved!!!!

If your texts are so long that you need to shorten them to make them fit, maybe you should just fucking call the person.

Actually, this (very general type of wording) is good for notes in school when your professor is speeding through them and you have to keep up and/or when you don't want write as much/can't.

It takes more effort for me to "tlk lyke diz" than it does to type normally.

If I type like an illiterate moron, I have to think about how I should type out the words to make them look as "teen-ish" as possible.
If I type normally, it just comes naturally.

Incorrect. That only works if all the letters required for the word are present.

Sarcasm k.

It's the reaction I generally get when pointing things like this out to people. Even on this forum there's been instances of it.
