I absolutely hate it when people type like those fricking Chic-Fil-A cows. An occasional abbreviation is ok. Everyone does it. But when messages look like this,:
hai evry1 wats up (Not a terrible example. I can read it:).)
People need to learn to take those extra few SECONDS to type out full words. Lik I said though, occasional abbreviations are ok. Especially in the case of long messages. Punctuation, however, should always be used, because then it gets really hard to understand messages. Capitalization always helps too:). Ik (there's one:) ) I sound like I'm just being picky, but for real, It's gotten to the point where I can't understand some of these people.
