>It feels forced.
It IS forced. No one actually types like that because they think l33t corruptions are so funny, they type like that because it makes them think that its some "old internet" revival and that they are oldfags because they talk to each other in that way. Its all a big LARP because they don't actually understand anything about the "old internet" or how to "revive" it. They try to cover this using superficial means, but it doesn't work.
