If one thing was made for just one thing, then let it just stay there. I hate people using the text language (read: SMS lingo) even outside mobile phones. Sure it takes up less space and also means less time writing (or typing it) but hey, reading the real words is far easier. I mean I hate reading all those misspelled words. I am not a perfect speller, that I tell you but reading a word that has been spelled wrong is far better than a word that has been purposely spelled wrong. Heck! It's not even cute to look at - but I think that's what they all believe. And yeah, a paragraph that seems to go on and on and on just because there are no punctuation marks? Wow. And then you tell me that I am kinda slow because I don't know how to read the 'in' language. Please. I'd rather be considered old school.

So there. That's just my two cents. And just leave the text language to the mobile phones. The rest, please do try to spell them out. I mean call yourself a bad speller but you can definitely change that if you wanted to. Practice, people. Practice. Heck, even the Filipino language is getting murdered by the text lingo. A little effort wouldn't hurt.
