Wowza. I occasionally use short hand when I'm texting, but that's just plain lazy.

Painful. I couldn't even finish reading it..............
I don't think I would ever give anybody my business if it takes me 4 times as long, or if I can't even finish reading, or make any sense of what they have "written".

I have had people turn in slides and documents for group projects much worse. I actually get credit for pointing out the complete lack of grammar on an academic website for group postings each week. Some of those postings make me really wonder.....
Lots of ebonics too. I don't know what it is, but it is like speaking normal English anymore is just too difficult.

Truth is like the finest dagger ever made;
The steel cannot be dulled, chipped or broken.
Its thrust is deep and causes agonizing pain.
Those struck with the dagger of truth
must come to terms with the wicked lies
within their heart and soul.
No matter where you run or hide, nor how deep you dig your foxhole...the big green weenie WILL find you.

For every period there is a pause and for every pause there is a period.
