      I think it’s more likely that ppl will simply become the more expected way to spell it. When was the last time you saw someone write out etcetera, and ASAP is common in all but the most formal of settings.

      Hard agree. Sadly Twitter did nothing to help rid us of these short forms with its initial character limits.
