If it's too difficult for you to type "Y-O-U," your message is too difficult for me to read. (Pet peeve of an English teacher.)

laugh out loud (see what I did there?) :) I have always taken the position that unless I'm actually writing the article myself instead of just offering some comments on it, some of the traditional conventions for writers are less required. But you are not the first person to find my shorthand annoying so I'm learning that my approach needs to change. Thanks for the feedback!

Oh, my, thank you for being so gracious. Please forgive my being so critical and forward. I don't mind "lol" at all -- I just have a hard time with "u". Like I said, a pet peeve. I'm going to go read the rest of your comment now.

What a lovely conversation. (No sarcasm intended; civility is always beautiful to behold.)
