Once we become parents, it’s TEOTWAWKI, right? I mean, CMIW but raising kids is an EOOTW, yes?
Times were certainly easier BITD when we could KOFU and smoke some 420 WACITW.
Kids these days to their best to KPC – talking in code, alerting their friends when PAL or PAW. We try to figure out what they’re saying – texting, rather- and quite honestly it BTHOOM.
The good news is that there are websites available these days to help us SOOT. We do NATHWCG. But you have to check a variety of sites to decipher just what the heck they’re saying.
I’ll be interested to see what new communication tools, and special lingo, exists when my kids are teenagers! Luckily, I have awhile before I need to worry about it too much.
In the meantime, IOH and I’ll BBSL!

It is hilarious to me to hear my husband gripe about how our girls won’t be allowed phones to text their friends in code. HAHAHA. He’s turned into such an old fart since becoming a father.
I’ll def have to learn the codes. Took me forever to even learn “ROFLMAO” correctly. I’m pretty sure hardly anyone even uses one that anymore.

That codetalk just makes my brain feel slippery and unfocused.
