Upon further thought, I agree that there is a significant
probability that it could be "kills you." But many times out of the
probability space such a variant, if intended to mean that, would be
chosen only if a more common form was unavailable.
Not at all. It's fashionable among many people on the internet to use
these alternative spellings in everyday speech. All the time, you see
people typing things like `wot is ur name' when there's nothing at
all, apart from personal preference, that prevents them typing the
more common `What is your name?' Such a person would be very likely
to choose a username that reflected their spelling preferences.
