I think a more serious problem is the overuse of the last three letters of the alphabet in substitution for others. It seems that with the dawn of the new millenium, the last three letters of the alphabet have become "Extreme" in nature.
Fist, X. This letter is just about dead and buried in the slang world. X-Games, XFL, X-treme, X-cuse me, EconomiX... Any way you look at it, X ain't just for Xylophone anymore, although overused and unfunny.
Next, Y. Instead of "why?" some people use simply "y?" in text messaging or IMs. Children of the 80s were called Generation X, so children of the 90's adopted Generation Y. "Y!" has become a trademark for the company Yahoo. Not as bad as X, but it's still there. We may never know Y.
And then there's Z. This letter is often overused in "urban" speak or suburban teens pretending to be urban by inserting it into words that generally contain S's instead. Examples: Bizzitch, Hizzouse, Bizznitch, Chrizza...
What you got beeyotch? =T to the Mizzem P!=
