I am just wondering, not meaning to insult people. im just curious, because I'm totally guilty of it. But why do people spell

girl-gurl?
because-becuz?
you-yew?
boys-boiz?
the-tha?
laters(lol)-l8terz

etc.

just wondering, since most of the time it takes most of the time to write it the other way.. tongue.gif lol biggrin.gif Any ideas? lol

l8terz rolleyes.gif wink.gif

Um, I don't know. Maybe they think it's faster that way? However, it takes me a long time to try to type like that. I guess people get used to it.

LoL, I remember when I used to type like that... I think I did because I thought it looked cool & everyone else I knew was typing like that too. Now I think it looks stupid, and I flinch whenever I read some of my past xanga entries with weird spellings... haha.

here are a few things that i usually say

you kno (know)
aight (alright)
what's up doggggggggggggggggg (what is up dog (dog - person i am talking with, not an actual dog, not something i'm dogging, not a person i think is a horny slut))
nah (no)
and yea (the way i finish a sentence because that's my closer i.e: so we were scoping out these hinges for my door and this guy falls over on a sign and yea.)
what the f*** ever (extreme distaste for whatever it is i am dealing with or just playing around and extending my sentence)
np (no prob.. you ingrateful biatch j/p)
wow (utter disbelief in what has just happened)
nothing (usually answering a 'what are you doin' question and i'm usually just staring at the screen looking at your mother)
b/c (because i don't want to type because)
so.. you wanna? (have sex with me and a hooker i hired last night behind a tree it's gonna be leaves and bark everywhere!)

maybe i took that one too far

please note i am always kidding unless i am serious. seriously.

3. habits they pick up over the internet
4. influence, same as above

kinds of like why people have "lol", "g2g", and "ttyl"

Because it's also internet slang. Personally I think it's rather annoying. You might as well type with correct spelling and grammar because you'll need to get in THAT habit rather than getting in the habit of typing lyke diz.

"Gurl" was used in screennames because "girl" was taken. And I can understand "becuz" with "because" because it's easier to use. And it actually shortens the weird. The other stuff.. I don't get.

i argued with this one girl on a different forum about a graphics battle and when she created the rules, i could hardly read them. i`m like "can you please re-write them? because i can hardly read it."

she said EVERYONE understands her "internet slang". wow.. mellow.gif

sometimes it`s easier .. sometimes they just think it looks "cool". what annoys me the most is `OmG lIk3 wHaT r Ya DoIn?!` .. that bugs the crap outta me.
