Actually I still dont understand why the hell people use internet-short acronyms. I mean, whats the difference between ¨Really! I literally fell down laughing!¨ to ¨HS! I LMAO MOFO!¨. To me ? The world. I still cant grasp the idea that in a completely written medium people would rather use this little shortcuts than expressing themselves in a way anyone and everyone can understand. Its robotic to use the same lines repeteadly. :S
I actually have a friend who is frustrating to talk to in the msn, most of the times we end up with something like.
Me: Oi Oi mono! Nos vamos a juntar en casa de Rorrito a las 7, vas? pasamos por ti? tienes quehacer?
Him: .! (This, with 6 minutes lapses of course)
Me:Eh.. Cesar? estas ahi?
Him: si
Me: Eh.. vas a ir?
Him: tl vez
Me: disculpa?
Him: espera brb
Me: Que cosa espero? :S
Him: ocho
Me: Eh.. Ocho que?
Him: me voy
(He logs out)
In the end, the ******* does end up going, but he arrives at 8 and im supossed to crack his lil ninja code with the amazing power of mind fusion.
Something akin I believe happens with internet short hand.
But coming back to what we are talking about.. wow.
Pretty harsh stuff for her. But alas, all which comes to pass, it will only makes us stronger. Difficulties are part of the human experience and in the end, we should thank we have them cause they toughen us up. They make us mature.
So when is your birthday?
Be sure to let us know, so Wally can put a little Happy Bday hidden in the patches of Patches jacket, or in a poster in a wall.
That, and the on-forum congrats of course.
Regards,
Mike
