It could be true

In a dream last night, a group of fans (my dreams tend to take place at cons and parties, this one being a party held at Dreamhaven), we were talking about pet peeves, and kate_schaefer pointed out that the grammar and spelling in ads was worse than ever. Looking around, I suddenly realised that we were 20 years in the future, and today's text-messaging teens were now writing all the ad copy. Ack!

Actually, I'm pretty sure I've already seen ads using text messaging.

And I couldn't understand them.
