The only reason I could understand replacing the "th" with "d" is solely for dialect. An example would have to be Their Eyes Were Watching God.

But to use it in "txt tlk?" Ridiculous.

I can't stand any of it. Unfortunately, I've had to adapt to it.

The one that annoys me the most and makes me laugh at the same time?

"C_u_m" rather than come. But perhaps that's just the eternal trumpet section mindset that I have been plagued with.

(The only reason that I used "Rawks" rather than '"Rocks" is to get the point of the southern drawl in there. wink )

Translation: What have you been up to?

Honestly, it pains me even to type that now.

Well I hate ''Plzz'' and also ''Srry".

Plz, srry, ttly, ttyl, o (instead of "oh"), k (instead of "okay" or "kay"), d (instead of "the") and any text word that's the same length or longer than the original word.
I just don't understand that.

I simply can't stand 'plox' and 'orly'
For example:
Someone needs donations, so they come up to me and ask (as if it's a real question), "donations plox?" (note, no capitalization either)
However there are some that I do like, and do use.
Okey, well technically, there is one and that's ily. Only because I think it sounds cute >w<
'Ill-ee'
'Ill-ee too!'
<3
Anyways.....
I also don't particularly like when people use numbers in the place of letters, otherwise known as 1337 speak. (yeah that's right thirteen thirty-seven speak XD)
Such as:
'sk8r'
and
'go 2 my pro'
I also like playing with words, expecially spelling them how they sound when I or others pronounce them. (there's a word for that, I think)
For example:
hewo
nyeh
ohmehgawsh
whutehfuh
sowwy
nuu
prolly
And (which I know many people hate) using 'eh' when not necessary.
kitteh
foxeh
maybeh
funneh
And emotes such as:
*huggles*
*tackleglomps*

However, I will try not use these if they are not welcome in this guild. I do, after all, have (most of) the ability and will to use proper English.
