grr.

I hate it when the people talking to you convert to chat language. (note this is not l337. i like l337. l337 is l337.)

how r u? begins to make me frowny-mad with pure nouget-filled hatred. I don't mind long words abbriviated, that makes sense, but a word so short as 'you' and 'are'? two extra letters. it looks so unproffessional (and that is a spelling mistake, yes.). things like 'brb' i can't really hate because they make sense: the someone has to go really fast but will return (returning's the best part.), and doesn't have time to give an explanation, to type out eleven letters.

lol also annoys me. not always. when it is used occasionally, not every other line (its not like I try to be funny ). 'heh' works for the same effect, as does 'hehe' but they also grow repetive. I HATE IT!! O_O

i'm a person who values literature, i'm a person who values looking intelligent, i'm a person who likes to read CONTENT. when you shorten things, it ruins the power of the words, the ability to read it swiftly (i find it harder to read net-speak. it just doesn't flow.). you make time for yourself yet add it on to me and the others like me. yes, me and my shadow hate you. o_o

oh well. I can't change the rest of the planet, now can I?
but I can ask for you're help. DO NOT DO THIS! 0_0 please, please please don't. It will make you look more intelligent and you will eventually learn to type faster. believe me. i type plenty fast (just not accurate) and i don't EVER use that 'u' thing. (from now on its called U-lang. Slulang. Slulang, yeh that works ;) )

l337 is cool. It flows with extraordinary ease with me. ^_^;

pointless rant. oh well. had to get it out of me, ne? and this post was not spell-checked or grammar-checked, so beware. *dies of laziness*

You don't have to worry about me using those short cuts, as noticed in my previous posts. I always type the full words out (to improve my typing). I hate it when people put "bump" or "spam" as the only word in their responses. What do they mean? Please someone tell me!!

Its bad when someone does it on a posting board :mad: . But i think its ok when your IM-ing someone from school when your suppose to be doing work like i do, or when your are text messaging a friend with your cell phone (that text box is not that big so you consevre space. ) But if your on a posting board where its not important to rush since no one will answer anytime with in the next hour or so, just makes no sense :confused: .
