Nearly 30 years ago I was trying to show my friends how T9 texting worked. I tried to text "I like cows" without looking, and sent it to my friend. He received it, looked down, and chuckled slightly, saying, "I knew it."

Remember how good we were at that? I remember being in dirty chat rooms, typing out filthy things like 4446 7777666 9338

u/bobsmith93 18h ago edited 16h ago
That's alpha. Typing that in t9 (that I miss dearly) would be 46 0 76 0 938. It's been many years but I think I could still type faster one-handed with t9 than I can on a touchscreen with swype

The manure on your shoes probably gave it away but that's some serious maturity regardless. My friends would've been calling me cowfucker for the rest of my life.

Do they just randomly throw in some japanese and korean characters?

u/Time_Traveling_Idiot 16h ago
Regarding Korean, I see some that may match somewhat:
ㄴ, ㅓ, ㅔ, ㄱ.. maybe a flipped ㄷ... but honestly that just looks like a coincidence.

Ran it through "Google Lens", and below is what it said:
The writing in the image is the Standard Galactic Alphabet (SGA), a fictional script that serves as a simple substitution cipher for the standard Latin alphabet.
While it originally debuted in the 1991 retro video game series Commander Keen, it is most widely recognized by modern audiences as the Minecraft Enchanting Table language, where it is used to display randomized, cryptic names for tool and weapon enchantments.

This is not a language, it is MATH. I saw this on the chalkboard when my Dad was teaching at West Coast University. It is very, very advanced mathematical engineering language.

My dumb ass thought it was Tamishek then I looked at it for more than two seconds and realized it's Minecraft.

I rotated it 90° four times and put each of the images through google translate. They're probably all incorrect, but who knows!? These were the results:
Korean Translation: Happy Birthday! From Sunmi. Thank you for being born, teehee (giggle)! Getting older, T_T Won't age anymore / Not eating any more years!
Hebrew Translation: When will you come? I've been waiting for a long time already... I love you!"
Korean Translation #2: Let's get a 100!! Fighting! I love you? No... Hello! Im Nayeon (Miyeon)
Korean Translation #3: Hello! (Nice to meet you) I' m hungry, let's eat... What kind of delicious food is out there? T_T
