Yes!

AOLiens come across as blithering idiots using the shorthand of illiterate children.

Maybe I'm just an old fogey (definitely a possibility, but while _I_ can say
that, you can't! :> ), but reading "AOLspeak" slows me down! I have to stop
and analyze what's being said, whereas with "real" words, I don't have to, I
can absorb the meaning much more quickly.

Anyone else in that particular boat?
