Welcome. Today, I am going to put up part 1 of my first rant.
Today, I am ranting about a virus. A... disease. But, this is different from ordinary diseases. For this one is sprouted from electronics. It is called... Texting. This disease is so bad, that it has spread across millions of teens everywhere, dominating their lives. Now, I am not ranting about texting in itself, I just think it's silly. Oh nooooo... what I am ranting about is something sprouted from texting. Textspeak. The act of reducing a word to the fewest keystrokes possible. I can almost, almost understand why they do it for texting. I have spent exactly one text message in my life, and it was about five words long. It took me almost two minutes. That is why I can almost understand it for texting. Almost. Why can't I exactly? Well, that is simple. They use it everywhere. Online. everywhere. It becomes how they spell words. Some of them I use, because they are useful. Stuff like lol, wtf, brb, those I use. The examples of what I hate, and what is making me rant in the first place: wut, u, ur, y, alrght, k, etc. Any and all methods of shortening words to a set that is easier and faster to type. That I hate. If you want to send a message, you may as well type it all in full. And that are why I hate texting and textspeak.
Okay, part 2 comes up tomorrow.
