:iagree: I'm not a fan of texting but when I have to reply I always spell the words out in full with punctuation and grammar. I don't even use "2" or "4" I just take an extra 0.5 seconds to type "to" or "four". Another thing, which I think is just me (lol) is it reminds me of how "boy racers" or typical "rotary" drivers talk down here so that puts me off even more. Eg: "Watup ben dwn 2 da shOps 4 wiz an fings, rotas 4 life bra brp brp brp brp" :eek4:
