Message: [QUOTE="Renegade, post: 2919674, member: 1928"] Language has changed since then, so if you're aware of it and understand it, why does text speak confuse or irritate you so much? I'm not sure at all what your point is here. If someone doesn't understand the subject, they're unlikely to be able to speak at length about it or describe it. Wasn't it Einstein who said if you can't convey the message simply, you don't understand it well enough? So ultimately the goal would be to make it as simple as possible - if that meant typing it text speak for the younger generation, so be it. No, it's only useless to those that don't understand it. Which is seemingly you in your example with your son. [I]You[/I] don't understand [I]why, [/I]so therefore it irritates you. It really is a very simple concept. [/QUOTE]
