I received this message on my cell phone about a week ago. I'm pretty sure I received it by mistake. Anyways, as soon as I opened it and saw it, I was in complete shock. I have no idea what they meant to write, but the only reason I saved it was so I could share it here.

I'm curious as to what it says; but every time I see it I cringe. I get this feeling inside when I see the message; like an 'Oh my goddess...what does it even say...' feeling, and then it's like I'm gonna cry from the horror and confusion it creates in me.

That's absolutely horrible. It's some of the worst I've ever seen! I'll try to translate it as fast as I can, but I can only do so much...

No, my name is not David. I believe they sent this message to the wrong number.

What is that? Even translated it doesn't make sense! Is the person who wrote this retarded? What do you think is worse, the text-talk version? Or the translated version?

It's not sad. All I got was David at first, too... I had to consult a friend who uses leet excessively.

Actually, I don't even think it is 1337. It looks like a mass of jumbled symbols. neutral

Well, I translated it based on Leet.

You're right...so besides it being confusing, it's not even anything that would make sense to leet writing people...and that's saying something...
I'm half tempted to actually call back the person who sent it and ask them what the hell they meant.

I bet the person wouldn't speak much better than they typed. Yow!

That's hilarious! Can you imagine this? I call the person and they start talking to me with numbers...
"Hey, I'm calling because I received a message from this number?"

"1 352 4 48525 594636 3824746...."

"I just want to say that you sent it to the wrong number."

"1 375 25067 38567596 26594639!!!!"

"What? I'm sorry could you speak English?"

"284 2956 107603 926603635....."

"....I was actually curious about what the message meant..."

"4638247 284648!!!!"

"I'm not sure what you are talking about, but you sound a little hostile..."

"81764!!"

*slam*

"Hello...?"

(I can actually imagine a conversation like this and I'm laughing my a** off!)
note: obviously, the numbers were randomly chosen. I don't speak any sort of confusing net language.
