The problem is, texting can cause all kinds of issues, especially when talking to a different generation. The psychology of texting is different from one gen to the next.

For instance, Gen X will use full sentences and grammar (not me of course), while Gen Z will forgo all that nonsense. In fact, Gen Z sees punctuation and capitalization as formal and even curt.
And communication shortcuts? Well, let’s just say there’s a right way and a wrong way.

Like texting the word “okay”. You can do it sans the period at the end “Okay. “.

Enter The Letter K

So indeed, it’s acceptable to say,” okay”, “sounds good” or even “cool.” But when you use the letter K as a response? Well friend, That’s nuclear.  Because, let’s face it, the letter K is the biggest jerk of the alphabet. The bully of all the ABC’s. The Letter K is so savage, when you text it, you might as well be talking with your middle finger.

This woman shares my opinion of kale. The fact that it’s spelled with the letter K is just more proof that it’s the worst vegetable around.

Think about all the words that start with K like klutz, kidney, kale (who eats that crap?). And all the words it doesn’t belong in like knife, knuckle, knabble (what does that even mean?). But there K is, in words that it has no place in, just sitting there waiting for you to fail your spelling test. Like the jerk that it is.

So, when deciding to miscommunicate with a friend in the future, save your friendship by knowing the psychology behind your texting.

And, above all, please stop talking politics. K?
