    One reason I don't like to text is I get along better with people who are literate.

    I used to be in the TS (timeshare) business. We called it crime share.
I have seen entire messages that were nothing but acronyms and emojis. Ugh!

    I don't know too many and I only use the basic ones. But I guess it depends on where you're going to use them and with who. Makes little sense if the party you're texting with isn't up to speed.
You are right, it's all about the receiver understanding the sender's message.
I know you are also an 'emoji guy'. Those look different on the desktop version of the site versus the mobile app. especially if you are using your cell phone to send them.

    nice one!here for the points too thanks
Hmmm....not sure what you mean about "points". This isn't a giveaway. If you meant getting site points for commenting, you won't accumulate much as there is a limit on what the site will credit.

    (Acronyms are only useful if everyone that your are trying to communicate with understand them.)
Now that's a mouthful! And you are absolutely correct

    Hi, pretty lady ... not much into the abbreviation thingy either - I only knew "GMTA". Ever heard of this one: "GGG", "good, giving, and game", and it means one should strive to be good in bed, giving "equal time and equal pleasure" to one's partner, and game "for anything – within reason". I prefer the use of actual words. Excellent post - thank you!
Well that's a new one for me! I will have to add it to my "list". Always nice to see you dropping by and commenting

Hi sexyldy1000

that's a good post

yes, we all use acronyms

but, it's all good

hmm be safe

MisterWives - "3 Small Words"

Your watch broke
And I hope that it stopped time
'Cause I really like your body next to mine
And I know
I'm goin', so can I dive
Back into waters that I barely survive?

Now I'm thousands of miles away
I wish I could tell you to your face
The things I gotta say
That night that you colored my hair
I knew something real special was there
But I was scared

Three small words are so big when they're for
You

'Emoji guy'? I have a label? lol OK.
I'm always on my phone on this site and they're auto-predicted on my keyboard - the emojis I mean. I've only been using those emojis for over 2 years now.
Hmmm... They look different do they? Well then, it took a while to find that out. Seems like a few other people here are not fond of them as well.
No worries... I'll stop using them. Thanks for the belated heads up.

Thought I was staying the obvious. It’s been discussed before and even tested. Where did I say I didn’t like them? Just like acronyms, they are effective, in moderation 😊.

I worked as an engineer for 36 years and with 4 years of college have 40 years of using abbreviations. CFS RCN PSF are just a few. As someone said, it works when others are already familiar with them. Or if you spell it out and put the abbreviation in parentheses so you can then abbreviate after that. I sent an email the other day. I used sister in law and then later used S-I-L, and was questioned about it. I forgot to put (S-I- after the words the first time. Had I used one of the three examples I gave you, the recipient would have known immediately as he is a retired coworker.

Context is everything.

Yes that's a fair point - the first time using an abbreviation, spell it out in full and it saves time when you want to use it again.
Agree - our lives are bombarded with abbreviations and we adapt or stick to the 'old way'. Thanks for stopping by.

The only one I knew was GMTL. I'm with you all the way. I don't like abbreviations either. When I get a test and someone uses U instead of spelling out the word drive me nuts. There's others too I just can't remember them right now. But I'm one who would rather talk on the phone that to text. I don't mind if when asking if you feel ok, got home okay etc. It's just more personal to me just like writing a thank you card or letter instead of sending a text.

I too would much rather talk than text. And you are right, a quick, "Did you make it home safely?" or similar is perfectly fine. A lot of it has to do with the lack of time people have or are willing to invest.

Ever notice a group of younger people when they are together? The art of conversation seems completely lost as they tap and swipe on their phones, noting even looking at each other.
