    Yeah they also reckon kids are handing in work with sms text, like l8r and ur etc
    Although thats quite a serious thing, it could possibly change the english language once again lol

    They can say l8r and ur as often as they like when they sweep the streets and collect my bags of rubbish lol

    That would be false, its a waste in SMS to input the whole word. Someone like me, takes for ever to text... I guess. So i shorten the words so the person waiting for a response gets one quicker.

    Yes thats true, I do it online to some extent.
    But kids should'nt be using it so much they start actually writing it down.
    Like I said, if this generation is like it, the next will be worse and in a few generations the English languge will have been change.

    You know what it's like now, JP and Manker etc using words no one knows what they mean, but they're real words.....how far does it go?

    It really annoys me when people use "etc" when they think that a list of examples is necessary to back up their point, but they can't be bothered to think of any more examples of what they are trying to say, etc, lol
