Default Texting

Do you use actual words?

Yes.

My phone defaults to word recognition.

It is easier to use the actual word than to disable and then hunt for the individual letters.

I'm not a big text-er.

I do not do txt/leet speak. Ever. Most of my posts, including this one are from my phone.

The only thing, I'm a little more tolerant of typos.

Texting is gay.

If you want to talk to me, call me or piss off.

Agreed!! I rarely respond to a text unless it gets me out of talking to the ex. Then it's useful.

Since I am not 13 I also use real words. Those half words are ruining kids grammar!!

BBM counts as txting.. You're sending txt over your phone. Email, txt, messenger,yahoo.. They're all essentially txting..

I rarely text but BBM my ass off on most days.

I don't even use short forms; I type very much like I speak and spell everything out.

Me too, but I'm starting to get lazy.

I'm always BBM'ing Gas Man...and he's a terrible typing texting fool. Always using shorthand types of words. I'm falling into his trap.
