I used to be like you, then I realised that the English language has been ever evolving. Being prejudiced against efficiency has rarely turned out well.

Eh, I still agree with the prejudiced guy.

There's creative liberty (verbification), playful mangling (ohai) and then there's outright abuse (ur).

What kind of tome are you writing that you need to shave two letters off of something while completely destroying any sense of credibility you might have?

I18N is excusable, it's a gigantic word. "Your" is not a long word.
