New Pet Peve?

So some of my friends have gone a little abreviation crazy. This is how a recent conversation with one of my friends and my mother went.

Friend: OMG that it totes redic!
My mom: Ummm could you please translate?
Friend: Oh my gosh that is totally rediculous-it's pretty obvi (obvious)!
Mom: Right...
Friend: Abrevi's are so in right now! Didn't yall know?

Does anyone else agree with me that this new "in" phase is a little obnoxious?

  6. That gets so annoying! Some abbreviations are necessary, but translation should not be necessary for comprehension! haha

  10. ugh, I hate it when my friends talk like that. I can't believe how popular it's gotten, and it gets annoying really fast. Especially when I don't understand what the abbreviations for for sometimes, and it drives me nuts. hahahaha.

    I just stumbled upon your blog and it's really cute! You seem really genuine, so i followed.
