Someone apparently got bored and decided to spam the list with something not even close to JFW related. And I was doing so well not unsubscribing people, too.

Would someone mind translating all this? I have a hunch it's about one of those new communication methods like IM or text messaging, but I don't know anything about that stuff, so I can't make head nor tail of what this all means. And I'd like to learn. I'm guessing there's some sort of cute misunderstanding involved in some sort of message thing? thanks.
