I was out with my friend Dan on Saturday night.  I had a lot of trouble not being irritated.  I am not sure if I am showing my age, or its an appropriate response, but I get extremely irritated and frustrated when I hear anyone say “IDK” or “JK.”  Even “LOL” gets to me, but I can overlook that one on occasion.

I understand in text messages (I don’t abbreviate myself but I understand), but how am I supposed to have a conversation with someone when they say “IDK” instead of “I don’t know” or instead of “just kidding” they say “JK.”  It kills me.  It makes me wonder how they got through college, or got a real job.

Man it irks me.  When I heard that girl say “IDK” and follow it up with a “JK!!” I was ready to yell at her.  But she was (is) Dan’s friend.  I held my tongue…..

For a while at least.
