Instant messaging for the not-so-young

With so many teenagers writing in shorthand on the California forum of the board now, I've begun to feel so damned old and out of it when I can't understand half of what they say.

In an effort to get up to date, I've developed a few that are suitable for those of us over 20. Feel free to use them as you wish. Merry Christmas.
