Response A
The news was hardly to be believed.
"O RLY?" said the snowy owl, suspicious and skeptical.
"YA RLY," said the great horned owl smugly.
"NO WAI!" cried the freaky-looking owl. The snowy owl and the great horned owl turned to stare at it. Then they flew away.
Response B
Smileys. :) OMG, acronyms! And the most grammatically offensive; r u down wit chat-speak slang? The symbol, acronym, and misspelling force that is taking over the internet faster than an airborne variant of Ebola could create a pandemic. Striking faster than a cobra hopped up on pheromones and confined to a jet aircraft. Changing as rapidly as a politician’s stance on economic and social issues. But the real question - are you up to speed? Can you handle the chat-speak?
Take this simple, three-part test to find out of you have (or don’t have *braincells*cough*braincells*) what it takes to be a chat-speak master. If you can easily and quickly read and decipher the passages below, award yourself than level. If you have to re-read any piece or look anything up, or blood seeps from your eyes, you fail and must drop back to the previous level. If you can’t get past level one, you are hereby awarded the level of ‘n00b’. Which you, will, of course, need to look up. ~.^
Level one: old school
(a few acronyms and smiles, but grammatically correct and easily readable)
OMG, are you kidding me? WTF did he think he was doing? O.o IRL he’d be toast, IMHO. Stupidity FTW! :P
Level two: high school
(more complex acronyms, more smileys, simplified spellings and grammatical errors - slightly painful to the grammar lovers, but generally understood)
OMG, WTF? O.O r u kidding me? :D u need to im him asap, girl! Don’t let him pull that bs, lol. Not wit u! ttyl! (hugs)
Level three: chat-speak master
(unreadable without major brain hemorrhage to all but the most seasoned veterans)
OMGWTFBBQ?!!11!! r u 4 reel?!!111! LOLOLOL d00d, that b tripin. :O He da shizzle! XD neway, u ned 2 im him asafp. ;) kyko!!!1! LOL kthxbi
