Internet Talk

[VI-Chuckles-IV]

Why the hell do people have to butcher the english language with their shitty abbreviations and terrible grammar every time they get on the internet? I understand doing it for the sake of a joke, but Jesus Christ! Hasn't Texas punished us enough??

[Sarcasm]

I love how you add in Texas as if it has any sort of relevance.

[Gatekeeper0]

[IIH2IIPlaya]

So we can't use "internet talk" on the internet?

[mrwinneranimator]

I understand what you're saying, english is my second language and I speak better than most dipshits in here.

It's a redneck joke.

Logic win.

[uyersuyer]

I much prefer flat-out illiteracy to faux intelligence, personally.

[putzpie]

If we were in the middle ages, we'd be the ones butchering it.

just look at how they spoke it!

[lilcheeselad]

Yeah, I hate it when people do talk like that. The only time I write like that is in school when I jotting down notes very quickly.

Yeah I do that in school, too. Mostly to be a jackass though.

I know, I got it.

It was just so ridiculously unfunny, and didn't add anything to your argument.

[Peaceblossom]

This is probably the wrong place to talk about it. Newgrounds users are exceptionally well learned in the area of grammar, compared to most other parts of the internet.

Your rant is analogous to giving a speech to a book club in regards to how much you hate comic-book readers.

[ashman23]

becuase kids think it'll make them sound cool or gangster, but a lot of people have to use slang to catch up to touch typers.

Are YOU going to add anything to the conversation, or are you just going to whine about me saying people in Texas have bad grammar?

Right here

showing an analogy or a likeness that permits one to draw an analogy

Has nothing to do with the giant "ANAL" plastered over the first third of the word.

Well what the fuck? What else is he going to do? If he goes somewhere and whines about it where they all type like morons, they're not going to care any more than they do here. At least by ranting here he's ranting to like-minded people that might actually value his opinion. I'm sure one person saying that internet slang is for idiots isn't going to sway anyone's opinion or make them stop typing in the manner of which they're accustomed, so I don't see why this is the wrong place to post about it.

Your argument is such an old and tiresome one that to discuss it would be entirely moot at this point. And quite frankly, there are others who've done a much better job covering the topic than you.

You've done nothing to foster actual discussion in this thread. You've just made a couple ridiculously obvious observations, hoping to get a few, mindless posts agreeing with you, while throwing in some rather dry and humorless jokes for cheap laughs.
