AIBU to really, really hate

[NannyEggn0gg]

Bloody txtspeak on forums!!

It is happening more and more on here and it drives me nuts!
Even if you are posting from your phone, 'u' to 'you' and and 'urs' to 'yours' is just two more letters.
Would it really take that much time out of your day to type them?

YANBU, it's getting worse on here. Much worse.

YANBU,
I detest it.
My dmum, dsis (x2) and SIL all use it.
Half the time I can't work out what they are saying, hence annoyed phone calls 'why didn't you answer my text' and me replying I didn't understand what you meant.

One of my sisters accidentally sent a text to my landline, I answered and was greeted with 30 seconds of gibberish

You'd think they'd learn.

I do make lots of typos, but blame it on iPad and android autocorrect, rather than me being ignorant.

Why don't you switch auto correct off then?
I hate predictive text and have always switched it off any phone I have owned.

The only time I have ever used text speak was when I used to have lengthy text arguments with ex. Easier to get the vitriol out, believe me the difference between your and ur really matters at those times.

YABU. You can't possibly complain about abbreviations/text speak when starting a thread with AIBU, you should have put 'Am I Being Unreasonable'

supadupapupascupa Oh no, I never mentioned abbreviations, and at least I very nearly put a proper thread title up there so everyone wouldn't have to click to find out what the thread was about...
