DAM SUP YO DAT [WTF?]

[Phil]

My ex is from Barnsley, so I have people on my Facebook list from there now. Anyway, I've only recently noticed it and it's began annoying me a fair bit (I know it's not just people from there, but they're the only ones who do it on my list). They just keep spelling words wrong purposely.

The words I've noticed are:

'buaring' for 'boring'
'Neaw' for 'no'

It's shorter and easier just to spell them properly?

OMG WHAT IS EVEN THE POINT?!?

Yeah this doesn't really bother me too much and I tend to write grammatically, even online. It only really bothers me if it's over the top.

[Ardemax]

You get use to it over time

Things like this, however, I will never get used to. Same goes for "could of", brrrrrrrr.

if i'm ever to type using u and crappy grammar it's because i cba or i'm joking lol. it doesn't really bother me much. i think it bothers me more when people put stuff like Ill and Im or were (as in we're) or u w0t m8

but i don't think i really care

[Empired]

Same goes for "could of", brrrrrrrr.

YES. And it's not even a thing they do because they're being lazy. They genuinely think that it is "could of" not "could have". AND when you try to explain it to them they insist that they're right

i think it's beautiful that way i think those words should be accepted in the dictionary

[myles]

ok wow STUPID in my opinion

I think it's just an age thing, so doesn't bother me to much. Especially for online sites such as Habbo, people will be more likely to use more Internet chat. Nice prescriptivist attitude though.

[-:Undertaker:-]

I take language like slang as a joke really, makes things much more funneh.

I usually shorten words when I'm tired but I don't think it's a huge deal like its Habbo you should be thankful people are speaking some level of understandable English at least given the array of international users
