| I have this myspace account, so I can keep in touch/find friends and family. People post bulletins, it's normal... But there's this one from a football player I kinda knew... It hurts to say that this is the average person to come out (AS IN GRADUATE) from my old high school. As follows: "What Skool..Im To Kool!!! HAHAHHAA!! im So board...And Im likE studien for my next class..i cant seem to stay awake....so myspace helps me stay awake...aint it sad...well have you guys ever read 100 years of solitude?....if you have can you give me some advise about this book its sounds cool but, what do you noe of it?....well Hit Me bAck Foo's!!" Now, I'm going to point out 9 errors. In the title alone. 5 words, 9 errors. I won't even touch the rest of this mess. 1, 2 - mispelled/capitalized "school". 3, 4 - two periods on the elipse, and I'll assume that it was a rhetorical question, so no points for lack of question mark. No space after the elipse. 5 - No apostrophe on "I'm" 6, 7 - capitalized "to", used "to" instead of "too" 8, 9 - Misuse of capitals, misspelled "cool" If this were some 12 year old aoler, I wouldn't care... much. This is an 18 or 19 year old high school graduate (the football team was horrible, btw, so it wasn't like he was a star player getting a boost from the teachers). Anyone have similar/worse encounters? Oh, and feel free to point out the irony in the title, I figured I'd save the fun for someone else. |

| If you're going to be a grammar stickler, you could also tack on improper use of an ellipse. | |||

| I'm just pointing out what I could find. I'm usually not a grammar nazi, but this one just hurt to read T_T. (I'll admit my grammar is far from perfect, figured I should mention that =P) | |||

He was either trying to sound cool and sexy   or he can't spell or anything for..nothing. He must have been really tired though. |

| Just people that don't care if they look like tards. It's pretty sad. How much effort does it take to type correctly? It's not sexy. He looks like a dumbass. |

| Sigh, What is this world coming to? I mean. Would it hurt to actually try and attempt to use correct grammer? | |||

I don't know since your grammar is not that fantastic, not to mention that you mispelled "grammar" as "grammer". ;D |

| I think some people think it's cool or something, just like a lot of people like to use "leet". I see a ton of this "lata, wat, u, aight" crap on Xanga's, email's, and stuff like this at school myself. It's seriously like people think it's cool or something.  |

| Well, considering smart people are usually insulted and ridiculed, being an idiot might actually be the cool thing. Oh well, when I'm making 300% of what he's making because I'm a nerd, I'll know it was worth being uncool. @racoon master: I understood what you said... so no. I probably should have said typical in there somewhere. |

Hopefully one day they'll realize the truth.. ..no matter how far that day is I think almost all my friends type like that. I think that they're just lazy so they use other forms so they don't have to type all of it out..since most of my friends type slow. |

I'd say it's probably mostly stemming from the need to look cool to peers on the Internet for many of these people, and somehow, they feel that typing this way will make them LOL COOL POPULAR *YAY*!  ~ |

| The Internet is the graveyard of correct grammar and puncuation. Thats why the current generation of kids can't write and/or spell worth a darn. Good thing I was awake during those spelling tests. |

Originally posted by Valcion Internet typing? pfft, this guy and many others from my school actually write like this (if they can at all) when it counts, I'm serious. I've known some of the teacher's aids, they're the ones that gave me this knowledge (a few teachers, too). More like OMG THIS IS PATHETIC than OUTRAGE. |

| I'd probably reply with a simple 'Who?' or 'What?' to all of that depending on random. I guess it's a hard concept to type as you would speak. Then again, I'm guessing that post is about the same for some people. |
