    What’s the Worst Chatspeak Word?

    I was reading Facebook and I realized that “wit” or “wid” (meaning “with”) is the worst chatspeak word — chatspeak being dat stupid kinda tlk wit every1 but mah frends seem 2 use on FB.

    But Thought Catalog’s Stephanie Georgopulos tells me the worst chatspeak word is “dat”. You are saving one letter by writing in patois! Slacktory contributor Jason Newman hates GFY, which can mean “good for you” or “go fuck yourself”, which seems like a fatal ambiguity. The blog Hyperbole and a Half has made the case for (against) “alot”, but I’m not sure if a lazy misspelling counts.

    So tell me, what’s the worst chatspeak word? »
