it gets really annoying when people use wrong spelling and grammar on purpose all the time. I mean I'll use chatspeake occaionally, but not for a whole sentence. I dont mind spelling mistakes, but for heaven sakes people GROW UP!

Send this to a friend

I try not to mispell words and, well I'm terrible.
Whenever I try writing anything out, I always spell check. So, what's your question?

Right, well firstly, I don't think you should be going on about others' spelling and grammar problems without having a look at your own.This is what you wrote:
"it gets really annoying when people use wrong spelling and grammar on purpose all the time. I mean I'll use chatspeake occaionally, but not for a whole sentence. I dont mind spelling mistakes, but for heaven sakes people GROW UP!"
For starters, one should always put a capital at the beginning of a sentance. That's just basic, kindergarten stuff. Secondly, the phrase "on purpose all the time" could be refined to produce a smoother, more correct sentance. May I suggest expanding your vocabulary and branching out to words like regularly, consistantly or wilfully.
Also, the word "don't"is a contraction of the words "do" and "not", so it needs to have an apostraphe to take the place of the letter removed.(In this case, the letter "o".
As "chatspeake" is a compound word, consisting of the words "chat" and "speak", there is no need to put an "e" on the end.
Now on to your second comment, which is almost as bad as the first. At least you used a capital at the beginning of the sentance. As I've said before, contractions have an apostraphe. Can't is a contraction. And, lastly, when writing down a number under 10, it is considered correct grammar to spell it out using letters.
"I just cant take people seriously when they ask questions like they are 5"
But at least I agree with you on the essence of the sentance; I can't take people seriously when they write in an immature fashion either. That's why I comment on their writings and correct all their mistakes. Sort of like now...

Just a quick note to hbvb002; writing like that makes you sound incedibly dumb. Sorry if I offended you, but there is no other way to say it.

Lol @iamcool that was awesome!! No offense hbvb002, But seriously though... I personally, have never had a problem spelling. But unfortunately, not everyone is so lucky. So if you are not qualified to teach these "Spelling Lessons" of which you speak... well... Why do you feel that it's your right to suggest them to others? (just curious...) Well anyway, even though I am no stranger to proper grammar, I guess I just don't see why it's really necessary to apply it to chat. I mean, are we being graded? (I don't believe I got that memo..) But, let's say we were... Who is this "Chosen Grader" and why would I, (or anyone else) give a f**k what they think? In fact, I rarely worry about whether or not I am using proper grammar while chatting or messaging my friends. Unless I am writing something in which it would matter(to someone who matters) I simply write/type/text the same way I would speak it. Now that I think about it... I bet it might make people kinda uncomfortable. If it were my spelling ability in question, I certainly wouldn't be chatting up Miss Perfect. Or even worse Miss Judgement ... One thing you can be D**N sure of? I wouldn't dare post any type insult/attack (especially one of that nature...lmao) that wasn't perfectly composed. Why? #1 I'm just not programmed that way(not to sound arrogant. But...) #2 instead of ... well, who knows what your point was exactly... But whatever it was, instead of making it... all you did was leave an open window for this kind of feedback... Unless this is what you were looking for? and #3 I don't think I even need a #3 at this point... As much as I would love to stick around, I'm losing interest in this pointless and trivial matter pretty quickly. Especially when I consider that none of this advice means anything to you.. Instead of humbling yourself, I bet you're just getting offended. If I'm wrong, I do apologize. Either way I am sorry if I was harsh.. I just feel to do what you did takes a lot of nerve. No disrespect intended... Just a piece of my mind... I think all anyone has been trying to tell you, is that you shouldn't be pointing a dirty finger that's all... xo
