Making words plural is so cools.

Why have younger people (I thought it was middle/high schoolers, but it's seeping into my age bracket) started puralizing words when it doesn't make any sense? "I loves it," "Hecks yes, I'll be there!" Is the extra "s" really necessary? Does it add some certain emphasis that can't be expressed through italicizing or underlining or even, since those aren't available on your facebook wall, simply hitting your Caps Lock key for a few letters? It makes us look ignorant. And simple-minded. And foolish. Text-speak is one thing, but people. An extra "s"? With all the slang and extra words we've already created for the English language, this is what we resort to? Just stop. Before we screw up the next generation's grammatic futures permanently.

For reals.
