I've heard that frequent use of text-talk can actually lower your I.Q. :blink:

 

In a school where I used to work, the headteacher's spelling and grammar were so bad I had to go round behind her on a Monday morning and change all the diary notes on the staffroom whiteboard. I kept making the occasional comment about it but as it never improved I reached the stage where I just used to circle them in red pen. :D That's probably why they don't give me any more supply work. :angry: I know we can't all be perfect but I find text-talk just plain lazy.
