Accorrding to the latest in lingustics, grammar is going "bye-bye" simply because English is an international language and each country has its own standard of English. English training comes from every English speaking country. So, rather than be annoyed you should just adjust!

Things like grammatical errors, improper capitalization and sentence structure don't really bother me that much unless the person is claiming to be a brain surgeon or something. Sorry, I don't believe that anyone who doesn't know the difference between "are" and "our" made it through medical school.

On the other hand, "cuz dat lyk" drives me up the wall. I hate to try to figure that out. People say that if you don't like it, don't read it, so I usually just don't.

It annoys the crap out of me. I can understand typos and people who are obviously not primary English speakers, but typing words without vowels, using the homonyms, and using letters that sound like words (U R so rt) is such a pain to try to read! LAZINESS!

Well Kate you have to keep in mind a lot of people on here are just learning English. Even though their grammar isn't the best in the world they are trying. So stop being so impatient with them. If you don't you are going to give yourself a coronary heart attack.
P.S. sk!TTLes: that is being silly.
