I get texts like these from one of my roommates every day. I had to learn to decipher the meaning to communicate with her when we weren't in the same room. Let's play a game where you try to figure out what she was trying to say in these texts, which I have found in my phone.

Note: Most of it deciphers to English. If it doesn't, it's a reference to pop culture.

The last one I never figured out on my own and had to ask, so your guess is probably as good as mine was.

Oh, it's all English. Relatively (AKA at least one text I've listed there has a pop culture reference that is probably not English). My roommate just happens to use a slightly-less-smart phone where you press the number keys multiple times to get to letters. Apparently, she doesn't want to spend the time spelling out full words due to that, and won't get a slightly smarter phone to correct it.

Maybe she should consider getting a smartbrain first. All I see is Jibberish. /s

It makes sense when you learn how to decipher it, other than that last one. Honestly, I thought my phone was broken when she sent me a text the first time. I had to ask my other roommate how to decipher everything until I started picking up on how to do it.

I can read a few of them but I'm out waiting for a bus, so won't write them out :)

"i c a ll slhto oa m scmh scmh wy dt fndng"
I read:
"I call shit into my cum cum why don't you find something?"

:mellow:

That is so wrong, but it actually sounds like something she'd say.

"I see a little silhouetto of a man! Scaramouche, Scaramouche! Will you do the fandango?"

Holy balls that's not what I could have guessed xD
Especially "Scaramouche", how could we have thought about this? :mellow:

You'd be better off asking her than me. I just learned how to read it. I didn't come up with it.

Then again, I wouldn't have figured it out without the rest of the line in there. Context clues help with some of the words.

I must thank you for this Sora de Eclaune. The fact that I can not decipher it means there is still some hope for me after all.

That said I wonder how long it would take me owning to a phone to learn how to read that.

Edit.
I think I might have managed the first.

Good game. Come to me, I found something too cool.

Edit 2. I might have to revise that

"gg c2m i fnd smt 2cl"

Horse, come to me. I found 2 centiliters of surface mount technology.

Close!

"[Sora], come here. I found something really cool."

Note: The "gg" actually stands for a nickname I have. I can't actually tell you this nickname because it involves my real name. Though, if someone guesses my real name then it won't matter if I don't hide it.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
