People sometimes write something wrong or misspell stuff. This is allright and in my eyes it doesn't affect how I view you.
That was indeed a disclaimer to the rant that will come below.

People also have this need to shorten things down. No, I don't mean shortening several words into their initials, but shortening simple words.

For example, You becomes U. Before becomes b4, so on and so fourth.
Who was the person who invented this kind of "language" I do not know the word "u" or "b4". Why are they using this and then calling it English?
Fuckers.

Seriosuly, how fucking hard is it to write fuking "you" in a sentence? Fuck!
Things like laugh out loud or, laughing my fucking ass off(not assosiated with the shitty band) are shortened down due to the fact that they are used a lot and they are set by several different words.
You is ONE FUCKING WORD, set up by THREE FUCKING LETTERS! Y-O-U, 1-2-3. One, two, three, motherfucker. One, two, three!

Why are this used so much on the internet? Why do people feel the need to write like mindless cunts all day long?
Fucking Einstein would seem like an idiot with no brain if he wrote like that.
If you try to write with at least some sort of good grammar, people usually take you more seriously, and with it, read what you wrote.
When you use that "u" and "b4" shit you can write the recepie to get pussy, but no smart man would read it. No matter how good, deep or smart it is, people won't take you seriously.

You got to present your shit good, or else people won't bother to, well, bother.

All this brings me to something else.
What is up with writing a heart after EVERYTHING you write on Facebook? Holy shit it's annoying.
"Hello, r u goin out b4 lunch?<3333"
Everytime I use a heart for anything in writing I feel like an idiot. Even when it's used correctly.

There you have it, a unneccesary rant that will do no good to the world.

It's because of texting, and people take their texting habits to all forms of communication.

I've never used that type of writing in texting. Never needed too either.

before there were keyboards on phones it was a pain to text. Abbreviations were necessary to text back then, especially when the character allowance on a text was so little.

There are very few words that I will shorten down, but every once and a while, an old habit from when I was like, 13, rears its ugly head. For some reason, cya seems like a normal word when I typing. Back when I used to MUD, it was incredibly common, and I was new to typing fast, so I always typed cya. Just kind of stuck, and the brain doesnt divide it away from normal words. It is the same when I am saying G6R. Anyone that watches my videos will catch me saying G6er, rather than G-6-R. I try to correct myself as much as possible, but once it is stuck, it is stuck.

Abbreviations that make sense
lol (laughing out loud)
lmfao (laughing my fucking ass off)
lshilmsadmt (laughing so hard I lost my sombrero and dropped my taco)
cya (see ya in those few seconds as they are leaving)
gg (good game for when you have 3 seconds between games)

Abbreviations that piss me the fuck off

u (you)
r (are)
dush (douche)
2 (to/too)

It's just fucking stupid when you need to REMOVE ONE MOTHER FUCKING LETTER FROM ONE MOTHER FUCKING WORD THAT IS TWO FUCKING LETTERS LONG AND YOU ASK ME WHY I THINK YOU'RE VERY FUCKING STUPID.
