What is it with that weird ransom note's writing style?

  is being 

  it always being 

  was being 

  There being 

  You are being 

  Nobody is being 

  is still being 

  Is being final
Is that some kind of artifact of automatic translation?

Or is it a tendency of some non-english native language speakers?

Or is it just some sort of 1337 $p33k inflection to project an air of coolness and ambivalence?

Whether an attempt to mask identity through misdirection, and distinguishing one's manner with red herrings, what's the deal?

Who talks like that?
