Do u hate it wen ppl tlk liek dis?

[KillehKiwi]

i usd 2 typ liek dis, && i thot it waz soo kool!

Yeah, no. That was when I was younger, and now, looking back, I realize that typing like that is plain idiocy, and extremely annoying!

I only type like that when I'm in a hurry and can't spell out everything in time. And even then, it's not as extreme as above, or even close!

Lol, lmao, rofl, and ily don't bother me, and I use some forms of 'slang' like 'dun' and 'ur', but not that often. Although I do prefer 'haha' to 'lol'.

I even tell people who are texting me or messaging me to quit typing like a moron, and use proper English, or stop messaging me! We made the English language for a reason, and I like to type as I would speak. ;D

I don't really mind it as long as I understand the message and the person is saying something that isn't incoherent, but it of course depends where that language is being used. For instance, it's fine on IMs and texts, but having a good grammar in a discussion forum is seriously required.

Then again, I've mostly lost my faith in the current generation of children, so I'm not expecting them to have good sense or grammar and am prepared to deal with it.

 

[Nicktheant]

I don't mind it, I don't talk like that because it doesn't make me look professional.

 

[Yuukihime]

Sometimes I talk like that. But it's only with certain online friends. I try not to talk like that with anyone else. (Although I fail at it sometimes.)

 

[Brittani]

Yes i strongly dislike it when people talk like that. I always tell them to stop (unless they cant help it and they arent doing it on purpose)

 

[zaury]

Hate that too, but I'm used on LOL... it's all I understand since I started using the net... I'm not really used in chatting... When I use my PC all I'm doing is gaming, and lol is what I got there... lol

 

[Jacob77]

I hate it :[ !
The only "Slang" that I use is LOL or ROFL or LMAO ... And making a incredibly amount of dots sometimes ... But only sometimes I swear :[ !

 

[DarcyBangBang]

If your going to talk use words >.> Thats all I have to say

 

[ChrisTom]

Well sometimes it's okay. But if you're trying to be serious joo dond tolk liek dis. r joo zeriusly goeeng 2 tolk liek dis at teh enterviewz? But that is completely different from 1337 5p34k. b3c4u53 1n 1337 5p34k, v3ry f3w p30p13 c4n und3r574nd y0u.

I think there is a right time and a wrong time to talk like that. For some instances it's okay. For example, Meme's and 4chan:

so i herd u liek mudkipz?



I'm sure that's a time when all of use fellow Pokecommunityers can appreciate. But don't use it in a serious and intellectual conversation.

 

[KieronGames]

always ahppens to me
i spell havent as ahevnt sometimes

 

[Sacr3d Fire]

Hell yeah i hate those who talk liek dat i can understand only 25% of what they say.

 

[I HEART MEGA HITT]

Yes it's really annoying. It shows that you have know intention to even try to write like a regular person. I don't mind if someone has a little bit of bad grammar, as long that look like they are trying.

Some people do it either because of laziness or because they aren't even TRYING to type.

I'll admit that my grammar isn't the best either but that doesn't mean I'm capable of getting my point across. Not everyone has perfect grammar or spelling... it's just a matter of whether you are doing to be a n00b or you're actually REALLY trying to type.

 

[Yamikarasu]

If someone talks like that, I automatically loose a little bit of respect for them. It's a pretty good judge of character from what I've seen. :P

Of course, when I'm chatting I'll say things like "lol" or "jk" or "brb," since they're just plain useful.

 

[Numbers]

I don't actually know anyone that "tlks liek dis" but yeah I can see how that would get annoying. I'm annoyed already haha.

 

[NOOBLMAO]

I dislike it more when people use black font on a dark gray background.

 

[Rapide]

Yep. I just hate it sometimes.

"Writing liek dis"

annoys me because it makes me think that people don't know how to spell. I understand if people have wrong grammar sometimes. Everyone doesn't have perfect grammar. But at least they're actually trying. It gets hard for me to read and understand few times also. Though I still use LOL and ROFL too. I don't hate those because they're just simply relatively easy to use.

 

[DXrobots]

UGH yes, yes a thousand times yes. you save like what? 2 seconds of your life? Just type properly.

 

[Romantica]

It's one of my biggest peeves. I can't take anyone seriously that types like that.

 

[RYOUKI]

Yeah, sometimes. Many of my classmates tend to spell that way it takes a while to understand them. It doesn't bother bother me though, but somtimes it gets in my nerves. though sometimes I type like that when I seriously can't be bothered, so don't flame ppl hu typ lyk dat 2 bad.

 

[Captain Fabio]

I don't hate a person who types like this, however, if it is in a discussion, I normally ignore their views, no matter how intelligent they may be.

If is worth listening too and taking note off, then why should I have to struggle to understand what they are saying?
