My Top 3 SMS Pet Peeves

1. TEXTING IN CAPS! IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE I'M BEING SHOUTED AT AND I FEEL LIKE SHOUTING BACK!

2. SMS lingo / text-speak! I can take a few abbreviations here and there but that's about it. I mean, how on earth would I know what these mean - 'L8', 'L8R', 'NEtng 2 +', 'ata2ud', 'GR8', 'BBS', 'BRB', 'LMAO', 'WRU'?!?!?

3. People who mass sms! Look here, sms-ing is already inpersonal enough; a mass sms only makes me feel like I just HAPPEN to be 1 of the MANY people in a LIST. Yes, maybe I'm being difficult... But if you really want to mass-sms, please just drop the "Hi guys!" at the start of the message so that I won't know I'm just 1 of the 50 or so people you are mass-texting.
