I wish people that wrote like that knew how stupid they looked.
Especially when they write things like "wednesdae" what is the point in that?? it doesn't take any letters away, it doesn't save any time.
Annnnd it gives me a headache to read

Urgh, it is horrible isn't it! I can't stand it, thankfully on OB we don't seem to have anyone who writes like that...if they did, I would ignore their posts haha (or just not understand tehe)

I too giggled at the your bit 
But i was just bitching about this the other day, my friend wrote her status as "libz b in twn an owt trippn hard yea boi!" and my head nearly exploded. (shes 24 and i know she went to school because we were in the same classes!)
The effort it takes to write like that blows me away.
Equally infurating is replacing numbers with letters - 3 instead of E especially (3sp3cially?)

I dont have much hope in the next generation when I see stuff like this....
My grandfather (in his 70s) has started texting like this, because his young granddaughters (13) have taught him to text....it drives me mental!

Oh my god. I think my brain melted and dribbled out me ears trying to read that post Mucky 
Is it "cool"? (personal opinion - it makes them look stupid)

My teenage sister does that. Sometimes, her 'textspeak' words have more letters than the original I think she thinks it's cool... I'm sure (or at least i sure hope!) she'll grow out of it.

I wonder what hope our children have if they are concentrating on writing the "wrong" way. It drives me nuts too. Its the new In thing. I wonder how long it will take until no one remembers the correct way to spell things........not to mention how random the words are to describe
I have also wondered about the people that spend all that time pressing Caps on and off to gEt tHaT eFfEct.......(those three words too me ages to just type)
OH DEAR OH DEAR OH DEAR!!!!!
that generation thinks it super cool.........altho by mid 20s I think its time to grow the F up!!!!
ETA - thought i better fix up my own grammar error....lol

Ahh yes, this is one of my pet hates, I just don't get it. Especially when like Kelly described they make the word longer or equal in length but replace as many letters as possible, its just crazy.
I've even seen it on facebook and in txts from people who I thought were intelligent and well educated.
I feel like an 'old fuddy-duddy' when I say all that.

I must say i do type that like sometimes, but not very often at all!, i guess being in an office you have to write properly!  But some people just go totally overboard!
