Wut's happnd 2 the English langwij?

For texters these days, life is easy. You don't need to have a command of the English language to communicate. For example you don't need to know which "your or you're" or "to, too, or two" to use, because you can just put "ur" or "2". Being the old-fashioned girl that I am (or just stubborn and unwilling to change) I insist upon spelling out every word, capitalizing my "I"s, and inserting commas when necessary to avoid run-on sentences when I text. I'm not calling people, mainly teenagers, that use abbreviated language stupid or anything. I just appreciate a more sophisticated, thought-out use of our language. Here are some phrases from books I have read lately: "antics of rascality," "idiot imbecility," "mortal indomitableness," and one of my favorites, "the fruit of falsehood carries in its currents the giddy to the grave." Isn't is just fun to say those type of things? Think about all of the wonderful words that we never use anymore. I can't blame it all on texting because it starting happening long before that, but I think it is contributing to the demise of intelligent speaking and writing--not to mention proper grammar. But maybe that doesn't even matter anymore. Maybe there are more important things in life than knowing how to correctly spell "You". U know wut i mean?
