At least it's original.

I prefer to think of it as efficient. Why speak 10 words, when you can mumble 11?

I actually think it's great. There's a lot of stuff in the written language that isn't actually commonly spoken, so makes sense we're "swallowing" the letters we don't pronounce. I'm really tired of the potato joke, though, that and kamelåså is all people can come up with these days.
