We were clearing out some old paperwork at HQ, and found this amazing text speak translation sheet for staff and volunteers from over a decade ago. The Mix didn't exist at this point; Get Connected and YouthNet were still separate charities.
There's a column with translations that I've blanked out - see how many you can guess.
All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
The truth resists simplicity.
