Insert eyeroll here.

So, a few days ago I asked a perfectly harmless question of a fellow user here on myLot. Every single time said user has commented on something, or I have seem them post anything here they have written in text speak. She in turn, blocked me. Because I asked her why she wrote everything in text speak! Now granted, I don't have perfect spelling. My punctuation is sometimes off, and I get letters mixed up from typing too fast, or not paying attention when I type. But one thing I avoid, is text speak. It drives me bonkers to see people write in text speak. That's not just here, that's anywhere. On forums, on facebook and even in text messages. You aren't saving any time by writing 4 instead of for, or b instead of be. You just make everything you write look like a eight year old who got ahold of mommy's phone wrote it. I'm eye-rolling because people still type in text speak. I'm eye- rolling because it's technically against the rules here, and I'm eye-rolling because what a stupid reason to block someone. Anyhoo, I hadn't ranted in a while so I needed to get that out of my system.
