Yeah, I definitely find that sort of typing irritating. I immediately judge the person who types "lik dis" as lazy, below average intelligence, and immature.
Well i think its ok but when people say "nigga" i get very mad i mean if there not blck i do cause i feel like they shouldnt say it but w/e ye but sometimes its okto write in txting form but sometimes you shouldnt make it a habit or else things could just be weird ya know

I couldn't possibly agree more. I find it very, very difficult to read this kind of writing and frankly, I eventually give up on reading such posts if they're longer than 50 words.

But after 25-plus years as a secretary, I'm not likely to ever get used to methods of communication that are sloppy...
Technology and the way of writing now associated with it has made people become motherfucking idiots.
I can type good if i want to but I like typing slang because it is funner.

Couldn't possibly agree anymore!
Yeah, I'm too lazy to do it properly in text messages, but on the internet? Come on, you sound mental.
I hate it too when people write like idiots... The only advantage of this kind of writing is that we can identify idiots in less than 2 seconds...
hah yeah, that's a highlight.
I certainly do value basic literacy. I read quite a bit, so it is fairly easy for me to use correct spelling and grammar.

lol, leet speak is just an anti-over 50 way of typing. If your old you wont be able to understand it. I use it when im being funny, but using it all the time is annoying. 1o1z, pwn u ub3r n00bs 1a73rs.
I'm assuming we are ALL using full sized QWERTY keyboards yes?

I must agree we should fully utilise them.
I AM SORRY FOR SAYING THESE, BUT YESTERDAY I, FOUND MY CHOP COCK COLECTION MESS UP WITH MY CHOP PUSSY COLLECTION, CAN ANYONE HELP ME? REALLY I DONT WANT THEM TO CONFUSE
Employers often ask for "good written and verbal skills." Those who forget what their English teachers taught them are destined for a life of low wage jobs.

Is sooo annoying!
I was actually just talking to a buddy of mine about that aswel. I spent so much time learning the letters, whats the point of substituting them for numbers. I mean honestly people. Lets think about this.
I feel exactly the same way you do!
With words on the net we tend to profile people as they write and some of the idiotic sayings and poor grammar make people sound like absolute idiots.
For example the LOL thing, if people were actually laughing out loud when they were talking we'd be booking them in at the funny farm!
