and whoever came up with that internet speak is a hot mess. its one thing to shorten words, but to put "ii" and "y" ad "ee" in all sorts of places, then take letters out - its obnoxious, and i feel like that in itself is like learning another language (written anyway, more like a dialect?)
my mother texts me in that speech. its ANNOYING. everything is "i c u l8r" and "im cumming now." really mom? really?

Well, WE know it is not a homonym but people from the south who pronounce our and are the same way think that they are homonyms (and interchangeable). I can't quite explain it.
