Looks like keyboard smashing gibberish to me.

Keyboard smashing gibberish. You can tell by the prevalence of home row keys.*

Funny; when I was BBSing back in the mid-90s we used "aslkjhfaln" as laughing. (Which I MUCH prefer to "lol.")

Yeah angry smashing usually stays on home row (not moving your fingers when you're smashing)

CAT-LIKE TYPING DETECTED
I suppose it can be some kinda homebrew encryption that can be decrypted with a greasemonkey script or something.

Keysmashing! To be used whenever OMG I'M SO [STRONG EMOTION] isn't enough to convey exactly how [STRONG EMOTION] you are.

btfreek has it - in the interweb circles I know, this stands for "inarticulate flailing from extreme emotion" - could be excitement or enthusiasm as easily as rage. One can usually tell from context. Sometimes the length of the keyboard!flail is an indicator of just how extreme the emotion is (longer meaning more) - sometimes it is just personal style.

That looks like my daughter's normal FB status updates. She's two.
