13-year-old Morgan Pozgar of Claysburg, Pennsylvania, won the LG National Texting Championship Saturday in New York. Texting Championship? Yes, 250 contestants battled it out for the title and a $25,000 prize. In this competition, spelling and proper punctation is mandatory -no abbreviations allowed. Pozgar sent the message “Supercalifragilisticexpialidoucious! Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious. If you say it loud enough you’ll always sound precocious” to win.

“It’s all about the thumbwork,” she said. “It’s about balance.” She said she owed her success to relaxation and deep breathing.

    Maybe one day it will become an olympic speciality. I hope I won’t see that day.

    I guess it has more utility than being a cup stacking champion…
