Emoticoms will soon replace our ridiculous alphabet. It is a superior system. Hieroglyphics embody a depth of feeling and meaning that the written word can never begin to approach. We will draw them with sticks in the sand on the beach and hoot with glee as the tide washes them away. As we "advance" we will draw them in mud that will harden, creating the illusion of permanence. Then carve them in stone, etc. The whole dreary thing will begin again. Better to stay naked on the beach perhaps?
As our public education system continues to fail our children, we can expect the next generation to communicate primarily with emojis of smiley faces and piles of poop.
Your narrative is well received. Thank you. I concur.

IOW, just continue the ways of the MSM, right?
