I hate all text talk. I have problems understanding some of the comments one of my friends puts on Facebook, and I think the older the person the worse it is (and I'm 37).
A common one here, although this may be a regional thing, is the incorrect use of the word 'as' ie 'Joe Bloggs as been to town', 'Mary Jones as a cold.'0 -

..."and then she went" when recounting what somebody said. Why use 'went' instead of 'said'? The two words are only one syllable so it can't be laziness!
'Inbox me'. When did 'inbox' become a verb?
Bad spelling of everyday words really irks me, I've seen 'he's' instead of 'his' several times on forums recently...0 -
