Seriously, where are these people whom talk like that? Because I've never ever seen them, and I've been active on all kinds of chatrooms and using IM programs for over 5 years (not saying that's a lot, but in that time you'd think you would see most things.) Sure some people might have their IM nicks written in that way, but I've never seen anyone actually typing like that in a convo. I find that strange, because there's always at least 10 people who complain about it everytime a thread like this is posted. My "pet peeve" (hey, now I finally know what that term means) is definitely people who get "your", "where/were" and "they're/there/their" wrong. I think it says more about the person if they go, "your lying, your dad where their, I saw him" than if they went, "u goin out 2night??". It's not that hard. I know some people who get it wrong are/could be dyslectic, but the way it looks now, it seems every second person on the internet suffer from dyslexia. Another more recent thing that's getting on my nerves is the way people have started to put a space between the exclamation/question mark and the word - like this, "where are you ?!". And I don't get why people do this? Because it's usually the same people who wryt leik dis, and they type like that to save time, right? Then why the hell would they spend extra time on such a minor and useless thing as putting an extra space? I just don't get it. :P
