YHBT. YHL. HAND.

If you understand that, then suriprise! It's communication! The bottom line is that a select few define prescriptive grammar, and the unwashed masses describe descriptive grammar. It's irrelevant who is better educated if you both understand when someone is giving you the finger. Language is a means to an end; if you understand the idea it doesn't matter if I signed it to you, wrote it in the snow with urine, or carved it on a stick and hit you with it...you have the end result.

OMFG UR AN ID10T!!! may seem moronic, but if you get it, it has achieved what a good language is meant to do, and that is convey an idea.
