You Can Tell When An Older Parent Is Texting
This cracked me up, because it is SO true! Well, maybe not if you are a younger parent, but as a father in his latter 40's (very latter--I'm 57), you show your "uncoolness" very quickly when you send text messages. And I'm bad, but not THIS bad:
When you text the following: "Sorry I'm late, but my phone didn't wiggle", that's a sign that you have NOT gotten the lingo down!!!
Or how bout this one: "Twitter? Never heard of it. Is that like Quiddich?"
These all come from a fabulously funny website called "When Parents Text"
Here's one more for you from When Parents Text.com:
mom: | come hang out with me. |
---|---|
me: | im folding clothes right now |
mom: | ok. you can put folded towels around my casket |
Wow--that didn't give away that she was a mother.... Not at all!!! So check out this, parents (assuming your good with getting on the internets). You will L.O.L /O.M.G!! (is that correct? Do you have to put periods in between the letters? Trying not to give away that I'm an older parent, but I guess in this case I'm S.O.L.!!! (you don't have to be a texter to know what THAT means!!) E.O.D.B. (End Of Dumb Blog)
