I love t9 texting.
I am getting REALLY good at it and hope someday to perfect it. I know for all of you smart phone users out there, t9 is a thing of the past. But my slick, throw it into a wall and it would stick, battery lasts 2 hours, dropped it over 70 times RAZR does not have a touch screen keyboard. Here is a picture of my cellular:
Okay, this isn’t my exact phone, but 4 years and 12 days ago this phone was state of the art and coveted by every Dolce and Gabbana Richie Rich out there. In 2006 this phone cost $226.75. With gas at .98 cents a gallon that year, how do they expect us to pay that much for a razr? Mine is the simple silver beaut.
Anyways, I looked up the inventor of t9 texting and according the ChaCha, his name is Nathan Barry.
So, as you can probably guess, he wasn’t this age when he invented t9 and this might not even be the real t9 Nathan Barry… he’s just the guy that first popped up under google images. I sure hope it’s him, though, cause it would make me like t9 even more, mainly because how he causually placed his texting fingers in the picture so that we would know that those hands are magical.
Well, the real reason I like t9 is because after you finish typing a text, and you don’t look back to correct the t9 errors, some funny sentences can be created. I propose that we have “Don’t Correct Your T9 day!” It’s like a game to figure out what the person really wanted to say, which will be highly frustrating and time consuming, but equally hilarious. Maybe I will even create my own t9 language.
Car will mean abs
dog will mean fog
gas will mean hap (short for happy)
Good start. This new language is gonna take off like wild fire.
