Finally, I caught on and urban dictionary helped out
I am not a fan of text talk, likely since I am in school and read quite a bit. Reading is a process that I learned by memorizing words when I was little, not sounding them out. So I read by scanning.
This means I'm not used to the "text-talk". It's used my most people these days, and it trips up my scanning since I pretty much have to look at letters and then stop and think what they have said.
Not a light of time, but definite bumps in my reading, which used to bug me. But I'm getting used to people doing that, as I'm used to see so many fat people eating large quantities of food then blaming genetics for their CVD or diabetes.
