Does it bother anyone else to read the abbreviated words on line. example - ne wayz I prolly m gettin' older. I can't think of most I've seen but it makes for hard reading trying to deciper what the word is suppose to be.

That bothers me too and I'm a teenager. I can read it, but I hate when people type like that. Its like they're too lazy to type real words.

Yes, it bothers the hell out of me. For the most highly educated country on the planet it seems half the people can't, or simply don't take the time to, spell out the words correctly. Its a national laziness that seems to be accepted and condoned by Internet users, almost their secret language, so to speak. Wake up America! learn to read and write!

LOL, I am 41 and I do know the abbreviated words (most) and it still bothers me but I guess if you are a teenager this is how it's mostly done and they know it like the back of their hand. Good Luck! :)

no, what bothers me is that kids today think it's okay to speak/type like that. Since when did grammar and spellling stop being important?

I agree!! We're not sending text messages here. I'm 21, and I'm not old. It's really bothering me too.

No, you're not getting old. I'm 24 and I don't like that either!

That sort of "communicating" is rather annoying, and I never do it myself.
