What is Your Favorite Season of the Year? (Page 2) deyb_Deb: Sorry, the giant midget but for some reason, I'm not sure what you mean. I've seen people use the letter "u" for the word "you" but maybe that's not what you were posting about? (Post deleted by The giant midget ) deyb_Deb: Oh, okay. I have to confess, being old school and set in the ways I was taught, I resisted using short forms when sending texts; but I've succumbed to using the letter "u" for you. I also skip capital letters sometime. FunkyBiscuits82: Back when I had a flip phone I used the u=you and ur=your a lot. It was just faster. But now with autocorrect and the smart keyboard, rather than the physical keyboard, I typically just type the whole word. However, text abbreviations have never bothered me. They are used to save time. The only time they get annoying is when Idk what they mean and I have to google it. But this rarely happens since I don't text with anyone who is considerably younger than I am. lol. deyb_Deb: Especially when at a restaurant, I have a compulsion to stack those small individual creamers neatly within each other. I cannot place them separately over the table. If I'm eating out with someone, I will even grab their creamers and compact them with mine. cloudygrey33: I think some people just abbreviate their thoughts even when there is no frame of reference other than the thoughts in their own head... Groovius Maximus: How much time do you have? -I don't allow anyone to take my photograph. If you're not a state or federal agency, you're ass out of luck. -Jerks with a cell in hand thinking it's okay to take my photo without asking me? That's a good way to get your phone snatched away and hurled across a parking lot. So think twice. -Don't stand next to me. I need, like, I don't know: eight feet of me space. So don't stand next to me. -Also, if you like your fingers unbroken, don't touch me. There are a bunch more, but that'll suffice for the moment. (Edited by Groovius Maximus) cloudygrey33: It is getting more common and frequent too ... Especially if you're in a lane where you're going straight or turning and the people coming in the other lane have no clue what you're trying to do... It is actually dangerous. HotLaser: It is indeed Cloud..If I had it my way I'd terminate they're licence on the spot! It needs to end now and be fricken enforced vigorously. LoisS: PP - People who dont know how to unclench their butt cheeks and have a little fun. (sort to speak) deyb_Deb: I try NEVER to let anything with my family's name and address go into our household trash. I either cut it in unrecognizable tiny strips with my trusty Fiskars or save it in a small cereal-type box to be burned in the wood stove or in my son's outdoor fireplace. | Off Topic Chat Room Similar Conversations |
