Based on the terrible English in the second paragraph of this article, I'm assuming this is intended to be a joke:

Researchers at the University of Toronto say text messaging gives people a strong command of grammar.

Such as "lol" (laughing out loud), they also combine formal language in their messaging. People who use this are more likely to use the word "said" in an instant message rather than "be like."
