It can also be pretty humorous.
My wife and I are both really busy working 25-30 hours a week while trying to finish school. As a result, we don't see each as often as we would like and text message on a fairly frequent basis.
Sometimes when texting, we neglect to change the word we've written from how it appears to what we intend it to mean. Consequently, we've gotten used to some of the fake words that we might accidentally send to each other.
For example, my wife asked me what I was going to have for breakfast this morning. "Oh, probably just some grammka."
She immediately knew that I meant "granola"
Or, if we're g-chatting and want to express sympathy to one another for some frustrating situation, we might say "fami . . ." which means "dang. . ."
Maybe it seems weird, but we think it's pretty funny.
My little sister's name is Anna, but comes up as "Bomb" on T9. Her T9 nickname is quite fitting for her, so we usually just leave it at that.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh my husband and I do this all the time! We never seen each other because of similar situations and my favorite word EVER is dork, I am constantly calling him a dork, but T9 does not do dork instead it is fork, so now my favorite word is fork
ReplyDeleteYou have quite the following. I love that "Do you want to go to the movies?" comes out as "Do you want to go to the mothers?". And "are you awake?" is "are you cycle?". I love to leave it at that. Who knew it could be so entertaining!
ReplyDeleteFunny and cute at the same time : ).
