Why txt spk is bad

It makes you actually try and engage otherwise dormant braincells.

 

How is that working out for you?

 

As for the 'txt' speak I have been picked up a couple of times for using 'm8' I do find this one a bit ridiculous. I don't text, I have been using it for more years than I wish to recall. I don't usually need to think about typing in a grammatically correct manner. I punctuate 99% of the time although we all make mistakes :) I do absolutely abhor the use of modern text speak and won't post on the threads using it if I can resist. Sometimes I do however find myself using 'm8'.

It's meeting the man of my dreams

And then meeting his beautiful wife.

 

Oh.

 

If we can't bring this song home to the end, then my name's not Betty!

 

After 4 then...

 

a 1,2,3 4...

 

And isn't it ironic...don't you think

A little too ironic...and, yeah, I really do think...

Ahh, the ultimate irony. A song about irony by a girl who doesn't understand its meaning.

 

Oh the ironing.

Precisely :D

It's like RAY-AAAAAAYNE on your wedding day. Etc.

 

That song sounds better when you're hammered. I know a guy who stole Alanis Morissette's answerphone once.

 

Now that's actually quite interesting. Was he down the boozer going "I've got Alanis Morissette's answerphone in the boot of my car. Do you want a look-see?"

No, he was a barman in Canada. I was working as a ski instructor out there and he told us this story about how they broke into her house on a dare and to prove they'd done it they nicked her answerphone.

 

I meet some weird people.

Actually, that reminds me. I must return your toaster.

I have found through my studies that any braincells I activate I kill off due to me either A) Joining in the "lets knock a thread off course brigade."

 

Or B) Wondering why at nearly 28years old why am I asking Lbm at midnight if my pictures of Hitler in his joke thread are "appropriate"

 

Loving that someone stole the answer phone though as that must be a great/strange tale to tell.......... And Lbm can you please stop stealing my pants off the washing line.

 

Evening everyone.
