I have to cringe at this email that found it's way into my inbox this evening - I'm a stickler for the English language and find any abbreviation sacrilege but - hello? WTF is going down with the world when someone thinks this is an acceptable form of communication?

For the record LOVE the girl who sent me this.
There really are no words.
My step-daughter isn't quite that bad with abbreviating things...but she does it too. And sometimes it takes me FOREVER to figure out what the hell she's trying to convey!!!
