DEAL WITH IT.

Among all Internet speak, there are others that are not "wrong" that I find irritating.

alot (wrong) .... a lot
may .... might
wanna (stupid sounding) ... want to
methinks (technically not wrong) .. I think
comming (wrong spelling) .... coming

That's the extent of ones I can recall at the moment.




I do love Emoticons though!

One of my biggest pet peeves is people using "taking the reins" (as in someone taking charge of a situation) and misspelling it. It's "reins," like those on the bridle of a horse, not "rains," not "reigns," or any other weird variation. "Reins." Ugh.

I've never used that phrase.

Confession! I get mixed up with when to use who or whom and sometimes when I'm using lay/lie. I suck! -_____-

Wait.... what about the internet?

Well here's one...

My college has a SciFi/Fantasy club. For some reason, the public-relations guy is incapable of sending a coherent email.

For example, last year, we were planning a Vampire Fashion show. Well. They were pretending to plan a VFS. That's another story, though. We then got this email from public relations. Keep in mind that this is the guy who talks to people who are not actually in the club yet. Also keep in mind that this is one of him more readable emails, and that English is, in fact, his native language.

"From the top everyone

There is a since of weariness for a few people on this show. today we are 15 days out from the show. We have 2 models, 3 people taking photos, 1 filming, 1 doing music, 1 taking tickets. So I have been told. I do not know if this is 100% true of these people yet becasue I have not head back. The thing is that we NEED help with out you helping us like being in the show and getting people to come and help out. This show could take a big turn down, I don't what to see that happen, and I know there are others that don't what to see it happen. We need your help we need people to be in the show as models. We have cool prizes, why not sink your fangs in to them? Tickets are know on sell, why are you not buying them? If you what this event to live on you need to step it up, be in the show help out get people to the event. You need to let me know by e-mail or on here that you really what to see this event. Tuesday mark the final day what should we do?"

I know it's not full of netspeak, like some horrors, but I had a really hard time reading the email. This guy is a college senior and fancies himself a great writer.

This bothers me a lot:

Dose when it is supposed to be does. >.<

But at least you knew pretty much right off the bat to avoid them... Consider it a form of "loser" filter.

There's this guy I like to laugh at on Facebook, due to his awful grammar on the statuses he posts. One time, he was trying to express his love to this girl, and anger at his parents. I couldn't pity the guy since I was laughing too hard at the way he wrote it. It looked a little something like this...


"first u want dis n den u want dat! I don listen 2 u no more! i luv u grl! dat means evrythin 2 me!"
