Actually I enjoy seeing all of the text and IM lingo. It is the evolution of language. Some might call it de-evolution and they could be right but at the same time it is still a process in which the language is changing. The meaning of words are changing quite rapidly nowadays with the phenomena of the internet. I am glad to be around now to see how it changes.
Granted it can be very annoying when a person cannot properly speak the language, that is something I do find to be rather stupid if not down right offensive. However, at the same time the spoken language is also evolving and is taking interesting turns as well. A lot of it does come down to mispronunciation and ignorance of the meaning of words. I think it would be very interesting to see if we could still communicate with people 300 years from now if they still speak English. It would be drastically different language such as Old English is to modern English.
