I used "teh" or "t3h" occassionally. However when I'm typing in a forum such as this one I don't think its necessary. However, I don't see so much of a problem with it. The problem I have with people is not returning the same respect through actually typing their worlds fully and typing them correctly. "wut up" annoys me as does "how r u" and that kind of crap.
I'm sure you all feel the same?


I agree. Also another highly annoying thing is the usage of "lol". I mean, I suppose it's fine once in a while, thrown into a very casual conversation amongst friends, but when "lol" on its own becomes a reply, it irks me. Especially when it occurs repeatedly, and/or the person saying it is the person who orginally started the conversation. (It's the reason I dislike Gaia so much sometimes, heh.)

Don't flame me for this, but I'm actually okay with "teh". I use it myself too...for fun, of course.

Once I saw someone who said "i is hateer of t3h friench". Now I have no doubt that that person is a "hateer"(hater) of the French because he did not use a word of propper English(that is mostly French)...Oh sorry yes he did he used "of" and "I"(without capital).

I only use t3h if i'm really bored talking to one of my friends. And i like to use stuff like "XD" or "lol" But i don't use it all the time. I try not to over do that stuff though, i do see how it's comming out as more of a fad, but it doesn't bother me all that much.

I just HATE it when people say things like, "omg, lyk, yeh, & sff dawg" it's annoying. When people say "lyk" i think that has to be one of the worst things a person can type. Well, Next to "luv" and "4" for.. well, for.

Most of the time, it's a typo (I hope). I've seen it done on purpose since I joined this site. One of the users used to have a signature with "I am teh sex bunneh" in it. I cringed whenever I saw it.

Typists who use misspellings that become mainstream should get taxed some how. pwn, ow, 1337, pain!, t3h, ouch, j00, it hurts, lawl, it burns!

the agony of it all!

pwn, i punch people who say it while I'm around.

certain "gansta" words in Ebonics, my grammatically acute mom says it best "they sound like mentally handicapped kids."

1337, is for the want to be (wannabe), hackers who don't know binary or hexadecimal, so they made their own (t3h, j00, roxzor).

teh, is an easy typo that has been around for hundreds of years (you can find them, you just have to look in the right place).

meh, i use that as a grunt when I am unsure on something "you wanna go out for dinner?" "meh, I don't know." In speech I have caught myself saying "dunno."

lawl, what in unholy hell is that? the Latin phonetic equivalent to LOL, why the hell would somebody even do that?

To my language, 'teh' is tea. I say 'teh' just for tea.

I put "teh" when I'm describing something really cool, and I don't want to make you twitch, but it's part of the leet language. Sorry.

I type "teh" all the time, but only because my fingers can't always keep up with my mind. I guess it's not one of the worst, but it is annoying when people put the "3" in place of the "e".

"Meh" is something I use in conversation occasionally like Nazgrol said. It's like that "Eh, I don't really care" sound.

I realized something about the time "teh" appeared on the Amistad movie questions. (It was something like, "What were teh conditions like on the ship?")

My A.P. U.S. History teacher types his own movie questions. When I try to type "teh," Word autocorrects it to "the." Lutj would have had to go out of his way to change it to "teh." This doesn't make sense. There are a few explanations, but maybe I should ask him to find out.
