I don't like when people text like this:

ugh, I hate text language that is blatant abuse of English. I'm ok with some abbreviations and acronyms, but I hate the misspellings...I don't care if it is easier to type "r u"...it is spelled "are you" and should be used like that. Shortening a word is one thing...taking letters out completely or spelling it differently because it is more convenient is not ok. And the "2" instead of "to" or "too" bugs me.

bump!

I hate texting "slang". :P I don't try to use it. If I'm in a rush, I won't capitalize things or insert punctuation.

ric, you're epic! Grayscale AND Chrome! \:D/
