Happy April everyone! I welcome you right here. So, straight to the point and guess what? I have a story to share:
{social media chat, you can place anyone either facebook or wtsapp}
Friend A: HNM
Friend B: Happy new month
Friend A: HBD
Friend B: Happy birthday
Friend A: GBU
Friend B: You know, i try, everytime i do sincerely try to make you see that i don’t like these abbreviations, i mean, you write them and i give in the full words doesn’t mean my phone got larger screen like plasma tv. It doesn’t mean that i don’t know what to write about or like i am jobless? I hate it. If you want to wish me something, write it in full so God himself will recongise it. It’s not compulsory we speak you know? Haha!
Friend A: Why are you angry, it’s just social media stuff now? It’s nothing. Afterall, you know the meaning
Friend B: I know the meaning right?
Friend A: You shouldn’t shout because you understand what i’m saying, It’s social media language, you don’t need to write too much. Get the message, simple!
Friend B: K
Friend A: Really? just k?
Friend B : oops! you forgot? it’s social media language. Don’t tell me you are hurt.
Bye!

Am use to this as well. Are we trying to say its wrong??
LOL.. Guess this should be banned too. But what’s with these smiles everyone is now typing instead of LOL these days
looool. Oh my! this is so funny but true. I actually hate it when people use abbreviations unnecessarily. It’s cheap.
wawuuuuuuuuu! well, you can’t blame people though but to correct this, employ the services of auto-correct. You will be fine.
@modupe. obviously, the writer is saying millennials should try to type well. But this person that writes this rant of the day sef? Na wa ooooo.
This is hilarious and deep, for me i hate that ‘k’ thing. Immediately, someone chats with me and writes that ‘k’ that ends it. I will delete and block, right away.
@chief Tee. I’m telling you! That auto-correct can be annoying but it’s good.
But really, this post is funny and real.
@latoya, abbreviations are cheap. Nigerians will not kill somebody o
So, Ecowas, UN,Unicef,Ait,Nta? please, what are they o? lol
Truth be told abbreviation is the best, it makes life easier. I love it a lot.
Awwwwwwn I so much dislike it, its so exasperating. People should learn to write well and stop that shit they call abbreviation!
Sincerely its like I just got served cuz this rant is referring to me, I don’t know how to write without abbreviating. It saves time and cost especially for SMS.
I feel abbreviation is meant for those who are garrulous, in that they write the way they talk. Instead of spending much they tend to make it shorter in order to save their precious time.
Hahahahhahahah!! Well i feel some abbreviations are derogatory.. So i try as much as possible not to use it.
