Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
Okay, now I hate to go off on you guys (it's not your fault), but I just can't take it anymore.
I hate it when people can't freaking type properly, What is with people who type "U" and "ur" and "cu l8r" Why can't you freaking type properly? Did it come from cellphones?? ----- but that's no excuse! why don't people to type PROPERLY with their cell phone, using T9 - type 733 978 52437 for "see you later" instead of cu l8r it's even LESS keypresses and it makes you look smarter. the fact that people do it on forums! c'mon! who agrees with me on this. Ooh, and here's one, does it ever make you NUTS when songs are titled "CU When U Get There" or some stuff like that. |

I hear there are no girls on the internet lol

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
I'm confused. Are you an advertising gimmick or aren't you? I struggle to keep up with this new-fangled internet at times :(
|
Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
I think you'll find that most people here agree with you.
However, in a text I sometimes run out of characters and so I go back through the message changing you to u which gives me the extra couple of characters i need. |
Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
Hardly anyone on here talks like that which makes this whole thread a little bit silly :confused:

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
I over-read (...) someone texting what must have been their girlfriend some pathetic apology about some non-event that'd taken place. I'm not sure whether it was the line
'but u no i gt upset coz i care 4 u' or the entire farce that was conducting one's love life by text. In full view of a nosy scouser. |
Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
FYI it's an advertising gimmick that hasn't been banned yet guys.

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
What's he advertising? Angst?
|
Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
Well the two other accounts posting from the exact same IP were both advertising gimmicks. I'm rather amused at the persistence myself.

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
Great then this is a perfect spot for anyone to post any random thought, regardless of how unrelated to the thread or to reality.
I once was a postman and delivered the Christmas wreath for Ronald Regan's front door when he was the Governor of Califronia. I was almost shot by an over-anxious guard because I went to the front door instead of the guard station. Happy days. C U l8er. |

I want to bludgeon my co-worker to death with a keyboard. True story.

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
Where's the profit in advertising good spelling and grammar?
|
Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
Viral advertising or whatever was explained to me the other day.

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
Yeah, the argument of this topic is relevant to many forums, but not to this one. We're pretty literate around here. Basically (here's to you tomkat), the advert company is creating some kind of personality by typing arguments about common forum topics and posting them. He's probably just copying and pasting from notepad. After doing this for awhile they'll have created a channel for spamming adverts. I'm sure this going to get pretty sophiscated in a few years and maybe popular members we'll even be co-opted with bribes to spam shit.
I hope this 'doubledanger' dies a terrible death. I'm thinking a nasty case of face aids may be fitting. |

Don't use "c'mon!" as it is a silly short hand for 'Come on'. And it is also a rule that questions are ended with a question mark, who agrees with me on this?. Seriously, 0 for originality, -5 for effort. |
Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
Also, "FEWER keypresses", not "LESS".

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
I'm used to drunken texts. I'd assume it was "see you later" with the 7 instad of the 6 and the 4 instead of the 8. Slightly unsual typos, but ...

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
I never abbreviate in texts. That's because I'm an elitest bastard though. My flatmate keeps writing 'hay' in her texts and I want to slam an iron into her face. hay gays - that's funny, but writing 'hay' just because you're retarded isn't cool. Oh no.

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
we are assuming it isn't an advertisement in itself, but more part of the "grooming" process before you start another thread telling us about this GREAT NEW OFFER.

Re: Bad spelling, short hand "ur" insanity!
doubledanger, how do you get a job as an advertising gimmick? It sounds like a decent career path to me.
