Twitter Language

I totally do not understand the Twitter language, nor do I have any real desire to learn. I figure by the time I figure it all out, Twitter will have shut it's doors and it'll just be a flash in the pan. I remember my grandmother saying something similar about the language I used in high school.  (Insert "like" into any sentence Clueless-style and you'll have a pretty good idea).

Homonyms

Every time I spell "their", "there" or "they're" I have to read the sentence aloud ("allowed") to make sure I have the right ( "write") on.  I'm sure my boyfriend hears some stuff that's totally out of context, but it makes sense ("scents") to me.  Seriously, how do people learn English as a second language?
