Since newspaper ad prices were based on lines of text, abbreviations were generated and have carried on (W:white, F:females, T:transgender...)
Examples: Craigslist- strictly platonic, casual encounters, missed connections
City Paper- "I love you, I hate you"

Shiny Wig
I stood behind you when I was about to get off the train and I looked at your wig from behind! I said to myself, what is wrong with some women, are we all that lazy not to do our hair anymore? What the fuck! Then it looked like the woman had a whole bunch of greasy lube or some other substance in her hair! Then she ran her fingers through it and looked and smelled her fingers. I thought to myself how nasty I thought you were. It didn't make any sense. I know when you got home and took the wig off you were all sweaty and shit! I think that it is fucking disgusting! I hope that I don't see you again or moreless stand behind you!
This writing is informal and I notice switches audiences. The writer begins with "you," switches to "her," and ends with "you."
