Do you know what I find embarrassing? When someone can take the time to type out the whole word embarrassment correctly, despite it being one of those tricky words that people trip up on (two r's and two s's, how could you know) but when a word is as long as, say, 'You', they simply can't do it. Instead, you go the weak, soft approach and type 'u' instead.
It is this sort of softness (or laziness, whichever adjective you find more degrading to your good self) that is bringing this world down. When Jimi Hendrix figured he had mastered the guitar, did he think 'Why don't I just keep playing it, people seem to like that?' No he didn't, he decided 'I'm going to douse my guitar with petrol on stage and burn the (guitar).' What a legend. But you would've taken the first option. And nobody would like you. And you'd end up a brilliant guitarist that never quite made it, and while people would appreciate your skill, you wouldn't rock their world the same way as Jimi Hendrix did. You would be the Tommy Emmanuel sort of guitarist.
That basically sums up the difference between planetcricket and TFFSLLSSLFL or whatever it is (it may take a little while before I consider you worthy of my time enough for me to find out what TFFFTFSLFSLTTTSFSFSFL actually means). You're Tommy Emmanuel, we're Jimi Hendrix. You can do a good take on a couple of Beatles songs, but we wrote Purple Haze.
So continue to use your super-cool txt spk if you like, but don't tell iloveireland to leave. He's Jimi Hendrix, and he leaves when he wants to leave.
Mod's Note: Swearing edited out to appease TFFSL, even though it's poetic and legendary enough to deserve to stay
