“Sorry, I didn't mean to be so harsh with you last post. I didn't realize that you were posting from AOL. Let me translate to something that an AOLer would understand. Uuuh, da DSmZ areN;t br0king wh'n dey R' st00k. it's duh fazt 0nez. This has been a production of AOLbonics.”

“Absolutely not! I refuse to cater to the lowest common denominator in my online speech. No AOLbonics for me. Besides, it's kinda fun to read all the personality traits I am alleged to have based on someone else's interpretation of my posts. It's almost like getting your palm read by a traveling gypsy!”

“I'm not sure. I don't have the song to hand...the lyrics I found are more in favor of 'But if you're bored, then you're boring'...at least one of them is in AOLbonics, 'if ur bored then ur boring', too...”

“Could you not use AOLbonics like "u", "r" or "ur" etc., because they are not any kind of English language and are not understandable or might be considered as disrespect to other users because you're too lazy to write "you" and "are" at these people - is that the case maybe?:(”
