Know Hope for the Future Generation's Grammar

Chatting:

Emily: i get angry at people when they use abbreviations like lol, u, rofl, wtf, gtg, etc SAY WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY I'M SURE YOU'LL FIND ANOTHER WAY TO GET THOSE TWO SECONDS THAT YOU JUST SAVED BY NOT TYPING THE FULL FREAKING WORD
*although it might be a bit ironic that i used etc.
Emily: ...OH and when people use 2 instead of to because it really is so tedious to spell it out

I think it's cute she thinks 'etc.' is an abbreviation invented by the text message generation. I also think she understands irony better than I do.
