Here is a list of recent slang terms for texting.  I pulled it off of Dr. Phil’s website.  Way to go Phil!

Most people know that OMG means Oh, my God, and LOL stands for Laugh out Loud. But teens are getting more cryptic with their text messaging lingo, and their shorthand can range from the silly to the sexually explicit. How savvy are you?
