I'd say it only bothers me because I make the mistake so often.

I guess I'm getting old but some of the "internet slang" is starting to bother me...I really don't like to see "kewl"

Cool! That's a good idea! My friend taught me how to write in runes today, so now we can write notes to each other and the teachers won't know what we're talking about! (Oh man, we're nerds...)
