Morning giggle! Punctuation across the generations

Just another way communication lines are breaking down between generations and various societal groups. Sad.
 
Dunno if I'd call it sad, the topic is very funny to me.

Remember how we were all supposed to forget how to write because of the telephone? Now look, all anyone ever does is write :rotfl2:

I can't imagine an American who is functionally illiterate now, it is possible they don't have all the details but illiteracy is probably gone, poof! pixiedust: Will anyone talk about it though? Nope, nada because the flavor of the day is everything we do is wrong:/. Do I reject that? Yeppers

Just a few of the first links I found - I suspect there may be some bias, but clearly it's not 0% as you claim.
