For one thing, she wasn't necessarily stupid; she used proper spelling and punctuation in one reply, she obviously chose to type that way.

That has nothing to do with keyboards... "O" and "R" are nowhere near each other. Same for "teh", it sounds more to do with mild dyslexia.

Reg you lay toe ree : This is correct
Drugs War : This is correct (it's the "War on Drugs")
Drink Driving : This is fine (ie "Don't drink and drive")
Al bee nizm : It's pronounced "Albeeno" in Britain
BBC Sport : What could possibly be wrong with this?
Sigh rah que suh : Seriously, how often is this word said on the BBC?
Aw say kah : Same as above
