I know some will say it's just to save time, but I with this trend becoming more and more common I wonder what things will look like 10 years from now.
That's funny. My Mom types if full sentences and paragraphs on Facebook and it drives me crazy. I just don't find it the medium to have proper spelling and what not.

I agree. Facebook isn't where you go to write out essays. It drives me nuts seeing tons of spelling mistakes and sentences that made no sense, but there is no way I am reading anyones paragraph

Re: Things people say that irritate you
I don't like it when someone says "real" as an adverb instead of "really". I do it sometimes myself, but I try not to.

"That's real cool." "It was real big." "That's real far." Ugh, just pronounce the word.

I also, as I get older, don't like goddammit, jesus christ, etc, just personal preference. Have some respect. There's a million curse words out there. And with that...

I don't like curse words anymore. I have a nasty habit of cursing and realize it impairs my conversation technique as I go different places. Like family holidays with 4 and 5 year olds. I don't want to be that adult that sets a bad example.

I think you curse less as you get older. I don't use the s-word and f-word casually any more. I'm not a prude about it -- just "time and place".

Re: Things people say that irritate you
I hate fashionable words and phrases. English is a language, not an outfit.

"bizarre"
"demonstrably false"
"no worries"
Starting your sentence with the word "So..."
