[quote=Anonymous]If texting in complete sentences means you're old, I'll cop to it. Well, to be honest, I have been known to lapse into text-speak in deference to the character-limit. I cannot, however, bring myself to type "u" for "you". That's where I must draw a line. OTOH, I do enjoy the way that the brevity of texting style is akin to the style used in telegrams. Tho' I'm not old enough to have ever sent or received a telegram, it does seem oh, so romantic. Think of the great old movie scenes in which the arrival of and reading aloud of a telegram is a pivotal moment. Just one example -- Jimmy Stewart reading the telegrams from friends and family in the last scene of "It's a Wonderful Lilfe". [/quote]
