I don't mind the occasional grammar mistake, nobody's perfect and English is not my first language so I'm bound to make some too. What I can't stand are people who feel the need to shorten every word to the point where I feel like I'm deciphering some kind of secret message (I think this trend is even worst in French).

People do that in other languages as well? Hmm.

You wouldn't believe how bad it is in French. I can sometimes stop one whole minute in front of someone's facebook status trying to figure out what the hell they're trying to say.
