I hope you had great success in life with all that time saved

It's obviously ridiculous, but I was actually that impatient. I hope I learned some over the years. At least I now write with full-length words and not with abbreviations anymore.

Nt tht I 4got how tht wrks. I'm sure many here still rmbr how tht went. No time 2 spell out wrds. It bcame a secret lng of its own, like, 4 realz.

Keep it phat!

I mean, yes, I'm joking, but in reality with how fast you could type out messages in T9, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that you actually saved several days over the years, especially if you texted as much as I did, then you certainly saved some time.
