Is this better?  I'm sorry but a majority of my posts over the summer have been on my phone at work during breaks, I don't exactly have the time to edit and research everything I say with breaks being as short as they are where I work.  Now that I'm done working for the summer and have the time, I'll spell CORRECTLY if it means you all will get off my back.

We would definitely have a lot more respect for both you and your posts/ideas.

what would even compel you to go out of your way to type all vomity in the first place? 

it would take me an extreme amount of effort to garble "your" and "you're", to replace words with single-letter substitutions like "Y", etc etc.

Sometimes the portable VMSes (8 characters, 3 lines) come awfully close.

I don't understand why they use LT LANE. Possibly to be parallel with RT LANE for right lane, but to me "LT" is not an abbreviation for "left." Everyone understands LEFT LN.


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

They already kind of use text speak on some signs to save space.

LEFT LN is also acceptable per the MUTCD, and I agree with you on which is easier to read.
