I mean people who try to be cool and use modern slang vocabulary or phrases all the time, does that annoy you? It really annoys me that everyone isn't taught proper english and doesn't speak it accordingly because it just gets to a point where with what people type over MySpace and on their cell phones and what their "interests" are you just can't help but lose faith in the human race
i am trying to write as proper as i can do but my native language isn't English so if i make any errors i am sorry but day by day my english will be much better.
There is a big difference between leet speak and bad grammar. I don't mind grammar that isn't 100% proper, as long as it's easy to read it's fine. But leet is just annoying and useless.

Good one on tv today: "we don't go up under there...", talking about his basement. I generally don't mind, I can't call too many people on it since english is my second language, but when they screw up spectacularly I'll get annoyed. Don't expect me to listen to you if you can't even make the effort to construct a proper sentence.
Yeah all the time. The stupidest thing is seeing people write "u", "da", "4" (instead of for), "r" (in place of are). Seriously, is it that hard to spent the extra millesecond to write in the extra two letters?
Oh god, yes. If it's something like the apostrophe in its, then I can tolerate it. But when use of internet acronyms comes into play (in conjuction with bad grammar), I just want them to stop breathing. Nothing so ignorant and stupid deserves oxygen. Or light. In fact, they should shut the damn blinds so they get a disorder from the lack of vitamin D acquired from sunlight (I found it odd when I first heard it too, somehow).

Not really; just makes you appreciate correct grammar whenever you see it. :D
On the Internet or on your mobile phone it doesn't bother me at all, but I do know this one guy whos first language is English and he says the worst things out loud, like "Hey where you went" or "I see my dad last night"
It depends. When people use abbreviations like "2" it does. Is it really hard to type out "to" or "too"? Also, when people talk in slang. It's not "yo", it's "hello".
