OP
(Anonymous) 2015-11-30 12:49 am (UTC)(link)Yeah, that's how I feel about a lot of it. I just physically can't bring myself to type some of that stuff. Like, I've never been able to type the shorthand for "National Novel Writing Month". It just looks and sounds so much more clunky, even if it saves me a few keystrokes.
Hmm...I've always been pretty good at spelling and grammar. I wonder if that's related to my reluctance to use online slang; it leads to an ingrained feeling that I'm, as the saying goes, "Doing it wrong".

I think that's part of it for me, too :D. Obviously casual text speak between friends isn't going to be graded or meant to be professional or anything like that, so I can see why our attitude would sound weird to other people. But I still can't help getting that nagging, "This is not how this should be spelled!" twitch all the same. I suppose it's just easier for some people to make that sort of mental separation than it is for me.
