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
