Judging by appearances

Just curious - personally, the use of netspeak turns me off like no one's business. I'm not referring to grammar, as I trample it gleefully on a daily basis, but simple sentence construction, punctuation, capitalization, and the "ur" thing. When it comes to casual interactions (Myspace, LJ, AIM, e-mails) if you're in the middle of "first contact" what's your take on what you're reading?

*grin* Your comment had me laughing for a good two minutes. I can just *imagine* you looking at this IM window. Block, my friend - it's such a wonderful option.
And yeah, I'm a snob and have blocked people just because their writing got on my damn nerves

Hahaha, yeah. Unfortunately he told me "i have leik 5 im names and i use them 2 see whos on and if they block me". Blegh. Freaking stalker weirdo annoying kid.

Of course, I could just do what I did last time people really got on my nerves on AIM, and just change my screen name completely. Hm.

I'm glad you thought it was amusing. ^_^
