This is Not a Language I Speak
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010Yesterday, I posted a “free” ad on craigslist for our broken printer. I’ve gotten 12 emails so far wanting it – many with stories of how they above all the other craigslisters deserve this treasure. But my favorite email is this one:
Hi there,how r u!?tk u 4 the giveaway.may i ask if it’s still available?tk u 4 ur attention 2 this message.hope 2 hear fr u soon.regards!
Is this the language that the young people speak these days? Apparently I am not as young as I thought.
