You wanna know what really grinds my gears?

[mrscookie]

When people do this...

Alrite im a gurl huu iz fukn wkd man enniiit?

Text speak.... I do it lots Oh yes i do... however... how is ''gurl'' any shorter than the real word ''girl'' or ''iz'' any shorter than ''is''? ''Tha'' or ''the''... why would you? Its just as long! LOL
I do speak in text speak occasionally of its going to be quicker, but hell nooo!

 

[Uvlollypop]

lol yes i whole heartedly agree with you there

 

[Tilly]

There was a thread on here about that before, which turned into an argument lol.. but I do agree.

 

[mrscookie]

oh crap did it? I dunno whats to argue about really lol! It's just pretty darn annoying to spell words differently with the same number of letters. I even saw an application form once, with the word '' wenever'' written in there somewhere.... its like you get so used to spelling things a certain way in text speak, and you then start to forget how to spell normally lol! true story that xx

 

[Emmea12uk]

I only know one person who does it and she is 13! Most annoying thing in the world! Do you think they are just trying to hide the fact they can't spell

 

[psycholisa]

I agree, and it takes twice as long to read it because you´ve got to figure out what they mean!!!!

 

[Wobbles]

Are you on about on her Melbo?

 

[NeyNey]

oh crap did it?

That made me laugh!!!!!

Oh hun, I feel you...I feel you

 

[Suz]

I agree about the use of the same number of letters just changing the way its spelt....

But to each his/her own

 

[Wobbles]

NO WAY!

I agree! Annoying lil f'ers!!!

 

[AquaDementia]

...and people who don't use PUNCTUATION!!!

 

[Wobbles]

[nikky0907]

Oh,I'm so with you guys!

This is is not English language!I bet these people can't spell!

And use punctuation!

 

[hypnorm]

i started a thread about this a while back and it got deleted! because it caused an arguement!
I hate text speak with a passion, makes everything so much harder to read.

Me and my friend Amelia talk like that on MSN when we're taking the piss! It can be quite funny, but we're easily amused.
