Thread: Proper english. Let's take a whack at it.

Dear...whoever happens to read this.

I find this fucking hilarious, and yet completely disgusting at the same time. If you don't see the humor here, you are probably one of the people that I am about to talk about.

What the fuck is wrong with most of the people who write on this site...actually, just the people who write in general...who can't seem to grasp the concept of basic spelling and grammar usage?

Is it really that difficult to use your fucking brain and spell a, let's say, 6 letter word instead of resorting to a 3 letter abreviation? I don't think it would be that hard. But, if you insist on using these abreviations, please actually spell the shit correctly. Its not that hard to type 3 fucking letters in the correct order. Please, give it a try sometime. I'm so sick of, "it's easier and faster this way." No, it's not. It is just plain fucking laziness and stupidity at its absolute best.

Instead of coming up with "amazing and deep" poetry and other useless shit to type about, as though anyone actually cares, try paying attention in your 9th grade english class. Get off your fucking cell phone, stop texting your friend who is sitting on the other side of the classroom who secretly doesn't even like you and fucks your boyfriend behind your back...and instead...pay the fuck attention to the shit in your book and on the chalkboard that could and very well will serve you well in the future.

It's basic shit, people.

Examples:
about, NOT abt
because, NOT bcuz, cuz, becuz
before, NOT b4, be4
what, NOT wat
night, NOT nite
tomorrow, NOT 2mr, tmrw, tomo **note: for some reason this word seems to be one of extreme difficulty for most people. please, take the time to learn it!**

To, two, and too. GUESS WHAT!!! These words are NOT interchangeable! Please learn this. It is basic shit!

There are way too many other words to list here.

Learn to not type like a 4 year old...learn to spell...then reassert yourself in your self-appointed position of poet. I bet you that if you can actually spell and make any fucking sense in your writing, you could actually go somewhere other than "dictionary.com". Possibly, you could just not feel like such a dumb-ass.

But, whatever.

Maybe you are all content displaying the mental capacity of a 7 year old, while trying to express the deep and painful daily misadventures of your oh-so grown up lives.

Hah.

Have a nice day.

if you can find my grammatical errors without using some internet site or book...GOOD FOR YOU. It is people like you who actually possess the ability to create a decent future for our uselss and stupid species.

Well said...are you single? I want to marry you! Laugh Out Loud (notice, I didn't type LOL)

I am not really a fan of post with swearing within the content, but this is an exceptional. And if people actually go to dictionary.com, make sure you subscribe for "word of the day".

Wow, this is amazing. I would do it more often except I'm to lazy.

Haha there's actually a place called "dictionary.com"?!?!? That's kinda hilarious. **Note** I spelled "kind of" as "kinda" because...Guess why!? No reason. I felt like it. And I'm lazy. And that's how i speak. Well you say we should learn to spell? I can spell... But apparently I'm stupid, although doesn't it occur to you that maybe if you can't figure out what any given abbreviation means then you're the ignorant one.... But your grammar is pretty good, small problem with capital letters. I don't actually know why I'm even contesting what you're saying except that well, I'm not stupid and not too immature but I still write like that sometimes. What actually really annoys me is people writing like "Ohh Miiiii Gawwwd iiiii Am Soooo Totalyyy Lyke Waaay Kewwwl" and all that double-lettering stuff. Oh by the way I'm not trying to redeem myself and my indifference to abbreviations by saying that.

Haha well what the fuck you can get all high and mighty it's your problem if you're going to get annoyed about a little thing like spelling. =)

Sorry if this turned into a rant xoxo

@GlitterFairy, don't take it personally. She didn't say it was you. After all, we're not here to fight; we're here to help one another. I'm pretty sure ambarie didn't mean to degrade anyone but trying to say it's a bad habit to have.

I have a friend who always on the phone texting and of course using lot of abbreviations. As a result, when she wrote a professional resume, she didn't realize that she had used abbreviation in her resume. If I hadn’t looked at her resume, she could’ve lost her potential interviews.

Personally, I don’t really pay much attention to posts with a bunch of abbreviations. The reason simply if a person is serious, they would have spent much time on making a legible post.

Uhh sorry i was having a really bad day.. =/
But um, sometimes if im serious about something then i write it really quickly and my keyboard is so messed up since one of my brothers pulled out all the buttons.. As a result it is really hard to delete letters or do capitals and sometimes letters don't even show up. Plus like im writing stuff like "im" instead of "I'm" and you can probably understand what i mean, right?!
Oh well whatevs i sometimes write things like <<"whatevs" because that is what i say when im actually speaking.

=)

I think you've just compeletely flawed this thread. I find that quite amusing. .

I was, in no way, attempting to make an attack on any person on this site. I was merely pointing out that basic spelling and grammar are very good things to utilize. Example: the resume thing.

On a side note...I wasn't trying to place myself on a higher level than anyone. I was speaking my mind, as you did. But, unlike you, I'm not going to freak the fuck out about it and attempt to come up with a witty rebuttal. You can speak, write, type however you choose to. But, in the future, when you are out of high school, paying closer attention to spelling and grammar is a great idea.

Anything I post on this site in the future should not be viewed as an attack, but rather as a point of view. If you are offended by it, sorry. If not, great.

Have a nice day.

I am glad this is in the LOL section... because it actually made me Laugh out loud. I hate all the grammar mistakes on the internet.... it's a pet peeve of mine too. Another example: "Your" and "You're." I could tear my hair out over that.
Thank you, this really made my day
