Ah. I use a lot of abbreviations myself. However, I'm quite use to it and really don't notice myself doing it all the time. I'm also not the best spelling in the world lol XD I suppose if I re-read most of my posts I could fix mistakes, but I'm lazy :X I suppose I don't use A LOT of abbreviations, but I use ppl for people and pic of picture..(to me, it's when people talk like this : "y r u doin dat" or something along those lines, that annoys me.)
