Ralph: Dang! I hate texting!! I keep pressing the wrong buttons! My thumbs are too big! June: Ralph, you don't need to spell out all the words! You can abbreviate! You can say "U" instead of "you"! You can say "IDK" instead of "I don't know"! Ralph: Never! That's why kids today don't know how to spell! Whenever I text my kids, I spell out every word! It's bad enough that they can't write in cursive anymore! At least my kids will know how to spell! Norman: It's a text from Dad. Patrick: What does it say? Text: Whap timm will you= be hom?e? Norman: It's always hard to tell!
My wife says Ralph is me! I have a tough time texting as the buttons are way too small…and if I would buy a phone that is large enough to text (with larger keys), I’d need to carry a back pack as the phone would be too large to put in my pocket. :-)
