Text speak

Well if they actually needed help. I'm sure they could structure a sentence more coherently then using text speak. Lets face it if they had to write a paper for school or for a project at work, they certainly wouldn't be using text spelling now would they?

When I was a senior in HS, my AP English teacher told me a girl turned in a paper with smilies and "lol"'s in it.

Argh, stop! My eyes are crossing ~LOL~

I teach HS science and occasionally my studens will try to answer their test questions in text speak. I hand it back to them and ask them if they want a zero . . . It drives me crazy!!!

My sister is 10 years younger than me and it all about texting. She gives me a hard time because it takes me forever to write a message back to her, because I refuse to use text speak ~grins~
 
when I was more fresh out of school you'd have seen me using shorthand chat/text speak a lot more. It's quicker to take shorthand hands when the prof is babbling a million miles a minute. w/ = with, govt = government, etc..

Also, at my text to voice to text job we were required to use universal abbreviations (hosp = hospital, tmw = tomorrow, etc...)
