It surely feels like it, doesn't it? That poster usually would have added a few commas. He must be running out.

Ha! Or maybe the Long Island Medium posted it for him/her, in a trance, on the fabulous ether. (After cleansing the joint with burning sage, natch'! - A neat bit of sympathetic magic, like calling to/invoking like.)

This usage drives me a lil crazy:

although I must admit I got a lil heartbroken one day when I found a lil girl s grave marker which had no name just baby and the last name and she lived for one day .

Do people who use this abbreviated form of the word really say lil heartbroken or lil girl? Is it a colloquialism?

Maybe it is just a lazy way to write. My son often writes “prolly” for “probably.” I hope these words aren’t spoken that way.
