That is, the people who use "d" for the, "2" for two, "cuz" for because, etc. The reason this is so annoying is because, I don't know about anyone else, but I do NOT read phonetically. I don't sound out each word as I see it like I'm 3 years old. Rather, I (and I am sure others) read the sentence as a whole and just understand what it says. I don't read "word for word".
Writing in a phonetic style is not only lazy, but inconsiderate and results in that whatever the author has to contribute gets lost. It takes way to long to go back and read word by word and try to figure out what he's really saying. So, those posts end up in the virtual bit bucket. I haven't got time to waste trying to figure out what they are trying to say. ....

My pet peeve is people who assume I'm psychic and will automatically know whether they are talking about an MC or MCS. Please identify the type of car you're referring to and the model year if it isn't clearly spelled out in your signature! Also, if someone asks for advice on getting a little more horsepower out of an MC, don't tell them to buy an S! If you don't have anything constructive to say, please make room for those who do!
