It made me laugh at first, but only because it reminds me of the girl I dress at work. She literally has the fastest fingers in the west, but oddly enough she doesn't use lingo like that. But the commercial makes me think of her every time.
It is sad though that kids "talk" like that. And now studies have shown that kids who DO "type" or "text" using chatspeak or whatever you want to call it has a better chance of having a higher literacy level??? How does that work??? LOL
The only thing that annoys me about that commercial is that the girl is obviously very young and has that attitude with her mother. My (future) kids WILL NOT own cellphones until they are old enough to buy their own, or buy the pay-as-you-go phones with their own money. I think they're unnecessary for kids unless they're going out with friends, in which case they can borrow mine for emergencies!
