Despite the fact that donuts kick some serious ass, especially when someone else pays for them, I think I'll start a religion that is against people joining yours. You seem to want the English language to never change. It will, and it is. All languages do. In England they have cockney, and proper. There are already dialects of English based on location, why not the ultimate location.

Using internet slang should be a badge of honor for Americans when foreigners read it. We have developed our language so far that we now use it so efficiently to use acronyms for phrases and even sentences, conveying points faster and easier than before. We're also spelling words improperly, but phonetically, which actually makes it EASIER for foreigners to understand.

Again, sorry for rambling on a nearly dead thread.
