I also can't stand "text speak". It's one thing if you're saving effort and money on your little phone, but it shouldn't spill over into other full-forms of communication. I realize "R" reads as "are" and "U" reads as "you", "4" subs for "for", etc. etc. etc. But it's aggravating and I feel like a little part of my brain dies every time I read it.
And one other thing, this isn't necessarily about just words but how they're used, this is primarily a central-PA thing, but the dropping of whole parts of sentences always cracks me up. Instead of saying "I need to get my car washed" or "I need to wash my car", central PAers will tend to say "My car needs washed." Kills me.
