Lack of punctuation is also quite frustrating. It takes me some 15 minutes to decode what you might've meant. *sigh* Although, was really annoys me is people who are terrible spellers and don't care. I have this one friend who I had to stop talking to online because I couldn't understand what he was saying (yes, extreme case of bad spelling). But he knew he was a bad speller and did he care? No. He spelled things wrong on his college applications and didn't care. It drove me NUTS. I carry around a pocket spell check (maybe because I'm a nerd) but I think I spell fairly well. Not to mention when you're using a program that OFFERS a spell check (Like MS Word or LiveJournal) why still refuse to check your spelling?!
I mean, he spelled "know" "knew"-- which is the completely wrong tense! I mean, more examples:
"Memorize" - memerize
"Definitely" - deffinitly
"Comfortable" - confertible
"Honor" - honer
"Scholarships" - scolerships
"Saturday" - Saterday
"Mention" - menchun
Just... ARG!!! Sorry... hence why I stopped reading his journal.
