I actually do feel an odd pressure in my head when reading it, yes. Normal leetspeak is at least kinda internally consistent, but reading FBO, I have to switch gears so much that I do feel a little sick. |

I think the biggest problem with the overuse of leetspeak in any context is that it’s become such an easy barb at people who are morons that they use leetspeak that the parodic overuse of leetspeak is itself cliched and moronic.
Am I making any sense or should I stop giving MYSELF a headache? |

No, you’re absolutely right. This overuse of irony is actually what makes lots of internet communities and such so problematic-they’re a little too self aware. |
