I'd disagree in part. Why SHOULD people care abour proper grammar and
syntax? Language is adaptive to culture and need. If you're speaking in
jargon you're munging English as much as any of those low dialects. There
is nothing wrong with that.

If you really want someone to kill for their retarded way of communicating
kill some elite hacker dudes who type like they fell off someones license
plate. ;)
