I texted one of my flatmates (whilst back at parents for Christmas) to tell her I’d be quitting, except I had no credit at the time, so used one of those free SMS websites. Found out later that it automatically put ‘tb’ at the end of texts. Still haunts me to this day. Her thinking that I demanded a reply from her.
