This following quote was taken from a comment on a picture on Facebook.

"I no sum ppl who hvnt had many bday but r olda den sum ovas"

This type of thing I find very annoying as it's just people being lazy and can't be bothered with typing things out properly.

I know a lot of people have grown up with mobiles and are used to text speak so they can get longer messages to friends etc but doing the same or similar when commenting on FB just really get my goat.

/Rant

EDIT: And I know this should have no impact on their English but take a guess where they live.(at least according to their FB profile)
