Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for June 17, 2022

Samuel F.B. Morse was able to feel the same way when his telegraph code had various indecipherable abbreviations for telegraph-operating newbies.

Somebody translate!

My best guess at the translation:

WWYLN? (Where were you last night?)

WRUDATM? (What are you doing at the moment?)

hmwrk! (Homework)

IBRB P911 (I’ll be right back, parent alert [parent is nearby and can see the conversation])

np (No problem)

BACK !! (I’m back)

P911 AGAIN (Parent alert again)

np syt (No problem, see you tomorrow)

YTB (You’re the best)

Just wait when they use the Turkish language of Dirilis Ertogrul.

Then it gets extra tricky!

This is going to become a new language replacing the wordy English of today.

My grandkids laugh at me, because I use whole words and sentences in my texts.

Each generation creates it’s own language (ours was slang) to communicate without the parents knowing…

@Ricky Bennett – Wow!

Nor will the archeologists that will find those messages at some time after the demise of our own civilization, which at the rate we are going is not that far down the road……

Tony’s QOTD:

kwim?

Yes…yes it do. Whatever der googles says it is.

Do you ever get the feeling they are just putting random letters together just to confuse us.
