	The Kitsune Ninja Oh, yes. I've seen that commercial. Dozens of times. I thought it was pretty funny...and sadly true. Today's generation of kids is spiraling down into the dark abyss of illiteracy. It makes me cringe whenever I think of where we'll be in 20 years. In 20 years vowels and punctuation will be extinct. rolleyes

Everytime I see that commercial, I want to burn the Cingular corporate office down for supporting the dissolution of the english dialect.

Plus, it kind of shows how technology is making youths less respectful. The mother is paying for her daughter's phone bill, and the daughter thinks she has the right to dictate what she can and cannot do?!

So then I asked "Oh god...I wonder what we'll be talking like in one hundred years from now..." and Tyler said "Like, OMFG, TTYL, G2G." I'm afraid... =X

	Doppelgaanger Organic Shadows UGH it's so obnoxious! Those aren't even actual acronyms or whatever you want to call them! The "That's what's INBGD" ((er.. that's probably not it, but I can't remember)) thing really annoys me. See, that end bit is just the mom trying to copy what her daughter just said. Daughter: TISUF (or something) Mom: Look at this bill! That's what's tinsgf! Sadly, I know this commercial. "WU?" "This phone bill! That's what's up!" "Omg, INBD." "It is a big deal, who are you texting?" "IDK, my BFF Jill?" "Tell your BFF Jill that I'm taking away your phone." "TISNF!" "Me paying this phone bill, that's what's S..NF!" I know there's more, but I can't exactly remember all of it.
