Something like: "Once you younderstand how short sentences can be jyoust
by adding "you" instead of "yoyou" and other abbreviations. You read
faster and you write faster. BYOUT NO, you can't simply make a small
mental effort and take it as an internet slang and get yoused to it, if
not imitate it... It is all the same to me, oyour newsgroyoup, oyour
way, or the highway... fine, so be it. Bye."?
