21. I agree. At least give the full name of the person

I'm supposed to check out. I don't click on random podcasts based on someone's first name. That's ridiculous.

It's cell phone shorthand, I guess. People can't be bothered to tap in enough information to make sense, really. The Realtor who is selling our previous home does a lot of that. Cryptic texts. I finally put my foot down and insisted that every communication be via email and include enough information so I can make informed decisions. Besides, I keep copies of all of those communications in an email folder for reference purposes.

Texts suck when things are important.

Posting on DU from a cell phone leads to this sort of thing.
