Kids can't spell these days.

Maybe due (in part) to text messaging on cell phones. I know that a better part of our teachers (our Lil among many others) are busting their asses trying to get kids to learn, but they catch a lot of blame for things that are not their doing, such as:

i onli lyk the song
h8 the vid btw u sey gals r dirty guys r dirty 4 getin turnd on by it


That message is a reply to This (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFjK8jqeol0)

It makes me wonder if text messaging and IM'ing aren't as much to blame as the education kids are getting.

you used too many letters. If you were to have "texted" that sentence, it would have cost you about $9.00. :roflmao:

To be honest, I don't know but I do know that texting is an extra feature, and while I don't think you "pay by the letter" it is fairly expensive.
