You know that excuse "well im too lazy to use grammar"?
Too lazy? Are you f---ing serious?! I suppose if you cant type on a forum properly because you're too lazy, than you don't type reports for school correct? You don't fill out job applications correct? You use text talk to write written reports? No? I didn't think so.
So lighten up when someone says they cant understand you. Its a sign. Please use a f---ing VOWEL some time.
And capitalization. Too lazy for that, huh? I'm one of the laziest f---ers you'll ever meet. Look how I type! Notice "I" not "i". And if you post in music, naming a song- CAPITALIZE IT. ITS A GODDAMN TITLE! YOU f---ING CAPITALIZE THOSE! DIDNT YOU LEARN THAT IN SECOND GRADE?!?!!
Do remember; it's "thief" not "theif". I wrote that because I tend to do that. Yes, I make grammatical mistakes- I am not Selena. Or a robot. But I atleast CORRECT them.
It's MAY I, not CAN I!
And "it's" Is "it is" don't forget the f---ing apostrophe if you mean "it is"
actually, don't ever forget an apostrophe if the word needs one. There is a difference between hell and he'll.
Slang is okay, as long as it isn't text talking (extreme). You cant turn centre into cntr, because wtf is cntr? The Most excepted are text talk like "lol, ftw, wtf" etc etc.
Also, Don't Talk Like This Because It Gets Very Annoying And I Will Go Grammar Nazi On You
but dint tlk lk dis ethr cos ths s nrdble.
Deal with me. I'm a f---ing grammar Nazi. I could be way worse- which I will be if I need to be. NOTICE: it's GRAMMAR not GRAMMER. THAT IRKS ME.
One last thing. I don't understand how you people are too f---ing lazy to type. See ya at your office job when you're forty! Wonder how lazy you'll be then :P -
I don't have a problem with grammar because my iPod capitalizes and corrects my spelling errors for me xD
But ya I don't really see how you can be too lazy to type with proper grammar. I dont care as much about grammar but it does annoy me when people tlk lke ths because most of us have no idea what they're saying or it takes longer to read -
I agree.
-
._. I posted something like this a while back and nobody bothered to read it...

The only things that bother me most is capitalization and text talk. It's irritates me. But I'm fine with typos, or if someone didn't spell something correctly as long as their final point is readable. We learn the things we do in English class for a reason, so we can use proper linguistics in society to communicate well.
-
I agree with every. Single. Thing.
Also, THANK YOU FOR PARAGRAPH STRUCTURE. It's a beautiful, beautiful thing. -
Oh how I love paragraph structure. ^_^
-
Agreed.
And I'm not grammatically perfect, Ozze... -
Yep, true that. Infact, it will help them too.
Personaly, I stopped "talkin lik dis" coz... I mean... because I ended up writing "lik dis in skul essays". You will end up getting so used to writing the bad grammar? (hope I got the spelling right)
I don't think they accept that kind of grammar when you apply to a new school or a new job(unless ofcourse daddy or mommy does it for you)so Improving your grammar is for your own good and I'm pretty sure that involves not using too many !!!! or ????? or using them when not needed. For some unknown reason thats what annoys me the most. -
I'll try my best Oz. But please know, I still start sentences with "but" or "and" and other conjunctions. I'm not perfect. I never will be and I'm not trying to, but I make an effort to use propper spelling and grammar. Yet again, please know that unlike what may believe, I do not study the dictionary. I have typos and mispell words, but I try my best.

holden NewbieIt's accepted, not excepted, Grammar whore. XP
Little things don't matter. Your excessive use of 'eh' on the back of words got old a long time ago, and I only do it occasionally.
The things that really peave people are:
'Omg i wuz lke, i rlly h8 hm so lk totly yah cuz, u no h0w t iz'
Or
'HEY EVERYBODY HOWS IT GOING? IM KEVIN'
Doing tiny typos and not using capitalization is ok sometimes.
Because this:
'hell be here later so lets se how it goes'
is better than:
'okayz everybodies, hez gunna be here later, so lets se how it goes'
Just make sure people understand you. -
Wow, I f---ed that up.
*accepted -
holden NewbieBut thats being a hipocrite(possible spelling error).
People who b---- other people into correct grammar should do it themselves.
And to the people-
As long as I get the idea with something, your grammar is fine with me. -
*hypocrite.
But some people don't have have English as a first language. -
I'm fine with a little text talk like u, lol, brb, gtg, etc. As long as we know what your saying
