	Have you noticed annoying abbreviations like:lol,rofl,lmbo/lmao,ty,plz,g2g,etc.Those are annoying!!!!!I HATE WHEN PEOPLE USE THOSE,BECAUSE HALF OF THE TIME I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO TELL ME!!!!Abbreviations are only necessary if you are abbreviating a state,or country.It's not that hard typing out ALL your words.

	Only certain abbreviations I can deal with, like Mr. for Mister and P.M. for Prime Minister. But I agree with you, in txt talk, you can't be sure of what those actually stand for. sad

	I think I only use g2g and h/o. Which are, "Got to Go" and "Hold On" But as you can see it's because something important is happening and I have to go. But I do have friends that use them alot more, and they get VERY annoying. rolleyes
