Is it really so hard?

Think of the extra calorie burn! Grammar and spelling: one small way to hotness, people!

    I never looked at it that way! Typing complete sentences and not using text lingo to burn calories! Awesome!

    Truth! Those three extra keystrokes are where it's at! Twice the calories burned as simply typing "you" (which has three letters as opposed to six, or one for "u" which is just lazy as ****)!

    Nails on a chalkboard man, nails on a chalkboard.

    I admit it, I think less of u-sers.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who caught that :P

    It's sad to see how lazy people have become, and it's tough for me because as an ESL teacher my students are exposed to the atrocious "spelling" of native speakers all the time and they think it's correct because, "they're native speakers, so they know how to write in English!"

    The problem is people go to school, to hang out with friends, get laid, and screw around. They don't pay attention in class and then they get your order wrong when you go to Mc Donalds....

    True in a way, but think of all the people who are not from an English speaking nation. For them it can be very hard to know the exact spelling for everything.

    Nice shirt BTW :wink:

    My little sister used to text in the most ridiculously extreme version of text abbreviations before I told her I refused to answer said texts. She didn't believe me til she found herself waiting for an hour out in the cold after soccer practice after texting me to pick her up. Now she's a grade A typist and I won Sister of the Year award :flowerforyou:
