How does the fact that a large portion of your smart phone app users speak or at least write in the suburban, middle-class equivalent of ebonics affect how you write your documentation?

Yo, check this out. Hating on the users of your product for the way they hit up your 411 just ain't right. If your jobby-job is to communicates and shit, then you best get with the times, son. Because all that white-bread college educated bullshit you spew is gonna be just as useless to mah peeps as the lame Chingrish "documentation" we make fun of that is incomprehensible whether it's held upside-down or rightside-up.
