Youngsters always want to find a way to rebel, and adopting their own "language" is common enough. Thing is, it doesn't last, because no one outside of their circles mistake "cool" for "proper." Sooner or later, when they find they want to integrate into society (say, to get a job), the cool rebellion tropes are given up. They won't be using "fOR TEh LULZ" on a resume, unless they just don't want to be hired.
