I know a lot of people who write lyk dis...and trust me, I have tried asking them the reason for it and apparently, it "saves time" 😆
plus frequently I responses like "its cumin thru wat i mean so no need 2 write ful sentnce" and all I am left to say is "go back to myspace" 😆
In India, a lot of people don't have that good of a typing ability, so they have to look down at the keyboard to find the letters so they just chose to eat away as many letters as they can to save time and energy 😆
this so reminds me of my old days when I was in India and used to "typ3 lyk dis" just comes across as stupid ...
