    I text to some of my friends like this all the time. It more entertaining.

    Yeah, I’ve seen this before. It amazes me. However, I don’t believe the first sentence that only 55 people out of 100 can read it. It’s much higher than that.

  3. Diana says:

    how fun. It amazes me too that we can understand that.

  4. Jace says:

    Haha nice!

  5. Alex Burnett says:

    I’d say it’s more like 99.5/100 can read it.
    I’ve seen this a thousand times now though…

    45 out 100 people can’t read or don’t know english…

    That’s not the point. The point is to make sure things are right. (I mean, come on. Ron Harper for Derek Harper. They don’t even have the same letters, so your “phenomenon” doesn’t apply.) Making sure things are correct is a “quality” in it’s own right. Just as this is a “phenomenon” in it’s own right. Yeah, sure Pops was going into the deep end, but it seems so was everyone else, including this post. (PS, you need all the letters in the word for this phenomenon to work. If you leave out letters or put in different letters, that is misspelling also. So, the concept you are showing right now doesn’t work.) There were 2 different points to be had. It certainly seems all of you are missing the one he made.

    What does this have to do with the Jazz?
