I'll give some real examples from a 22 year old woman I know. This is the way she uses words.
2 = to, too
n = and
i b = I'll be
sum = some
tuff = tough
wiff = with
gud = good
every1 = everyone
If she was writing me a quick text message on her phone, I wouldn't mind so much. But she'll type an entire email to me this way. That is just plain laziness.
I don't do much of texting or reading them... I just don't understand them... If I'm texting, I write the whole thing out....
