I knew a woman on FB who thought that "thumbs upping" her comments was somehow offensive.

Online texting/interactions do cause a lot of misunderstanding especially when you are talking to someone who is not very online.

My friend wasn't that simple though, she kept insisting that she didn't care if I texted or not. Now that I think about it, I am not very sure to text her back.
