Laziness, they know it bugs the rest of us out here, the feel they are smarter for not giving a s**t, they don't give a s**t about what they are saying...

The list could go on but it's all rather negative. It would just be so much nicer if people like that wouldn't procreate.

Someone on the A/M/C actually called us dumb for not understanding her when she talked like that @_@


I'm familiar with people like that. It's not our job to learn chatspeak. To speak using the best English you can is best. I'm on the side of the grammar nazis when it comes to chatspeak. It needs to be left in cell phones or in chat rooms, it is not allowed in forums.

The worst I do in chats is not capitalize my letters. And I can understand people doing that on a phone with only number keys, but when it has a full keyboard it's just...no...


I totally agree. I type almost full sentences usually when texting anyway. >.> I'm a weirdie in that respect. I just love using the full keyboard to its full potential.

I have a numbers only phone, and I do that was well.
We're in the Nazi killin' business

To be perfectly honest, I only use text talk when I'm texting someone with my cell phone,
mostly cause' it ain't cheap.
People who actually type like that... I just laugh. Sometimes you could understand their point and sometimes you can't.
Funny how that works.

And businesses are boomin!
I find typing like that requires far more concentration than typing properly.....
It is absolutely necessary! You see, for example, LIKE is a very long word. We must type lyk! It's so much better. It was one less button to push and I really value that one button. rolleyes

Lazyness or just for fun. Something I type like this. But not that much, maybe I type "u" instead of "you" and "thx" instead of "thanks" and "cuz" instead of "cause". I want to be clear and people to understand me.
Sometimes I don't understand people! this is annoying, and I say, "Maybe learn some English? I don't understand you" and they say "Ya u must be 10 yir old kid". This is so annoying!! -.-

And they also call us noobs....it's ironic because they are the noobs, because they type like that XD
because there lazy or they think its cool..
or they may think its a " ghetto " slang :/
Lazyness and knowing that it's just the internet xd On my old Gaia account, I had the worst chat speak. Ugh. XD I couldn't even read it cause it was that bad.
Some people can't help but type like that, due to them using it for a long time.
I would never pick that addiction up, it's ebonics to me.

I don't know, but it really annoys me.
My sister sometimes replaces words like "was" and makes them "wuz"...
I don't see the point.
Kids are stupid.


question for your sister : how can "wuz" be easier to type than "was"? it's not laziness! they just think it's cool. -__-

the best you can do (when chatting with them) is typing everything out in perfect grammar and making em feel like uneducated fools =) if they don't now, they sure will a few years down the road when they remember how they used to chat. WUAHAHA.
