Vowel Diet? Vowel Shortage? Vowel Conservation? #-vwls
[Update 4/19]
The Center for Twitzease Control reported this morning that a sudden diminution in the global percentage of Tweeted vowels began to occur in places as disparate as Gdansk, Poland, rural regions of Egypt and Kyzyl-Kiva, Kyrgyzstan. Researchers at the CTwitzC are mystified as to the method and motivation of the Twitzease’s spread, citing theories as disparate as vowel dieting, vowel conservation or perhaps an as yet unnoticed worldwide vwel shrtage.
Symptoms: All vowels are removed from a tweet.
