SMS = A gazillion acronyms, mangled spelling, and emoticons.
I’d sure use a few of them in response to the soy milk pick up too !
I first truly appreciated SMS value when a 20yo told me a few years ago that it was how you found your mates in a venue with a live band blasting away. “where the F#$k are you” - “I’m down the front left near the speakers” - try getting that message out any other way, - like without letting off a flare, firing your revolver into the air, etc.
