I've started using abbreviations such as tbh, imo, atm and in instant messaging I use brb, lol, lmao, and a couple others. But aside from that I try to steer clear of it because frankly it gives me a headache

I still don't understand why some people opt for words such as "lyke" in place of "like" when it's the same number of letters in each. It's not any faster. And, actually, i is closed to l on the keyboard so they are doing themselves a disservice

itz wen pplz tlk lyk dis dat it getz reel nnoyin

I absolutely hate it. I use T9 so I can't spell a word wrong even if I wanted to lol, and I'm very big on grammar and all. Sometimes depending on who I'm talking to I'll chill on the strictness of my grammar and spelling some but usually I'm not one to abbreviate everything and use numbers everywhere
