what r u talking 'bout?

It just occured to me that while seeing things like, "u r 2 weird" posted all around the internet bugs the HELL out of me, I still continue to used 'shortcuts' like "t'morrow" and "S'alright" and the like. It seems to me, then, that this in itself could be similarly vexing. Granted, on my side of things it's an attempt to "type as I speak," in which case I do tend to slur "tomorrow" and such. Still...
I haven't decided if I'm going to reform my online 'speach pattern' or not, but I'd be interested in anyone else's opinions -- (a) do things like "u r 2 weird" bug the hell out of you, too, and (2) is my tendancy to slur words and phrases online a bother which necessarily should be rectified.

Mom always laughs and says it's a good thing I'm not an English Major, because I break all the rules. I'm thinking, though, that I may have potential yet.  ^_~

^_^ Yes, well, I've found through experience that your age-range is the most inclined towards Newbie-speak, and i'm quite glad you're not one of Them.

LOL And thak you ever so much for the compliments, dear. ^_^ I love you, Mere.
That was the general idea behind typing as I speak -- so that it was more of a conversation.
