The word is LITTLE, you inbred fucker, yes YOU, sat at your pc right now.

Little, means small, and is spelt L.I.T.T.L.E, not fucking lil, LIL is not a word and means fuck all. Here is a definition of the word little for those who are unaware www.google.com/dictionary?langpair=en|en&q=little&hl=en&aq=f

Bloody people slaughtering the English language, I know the type, you say 'hun' repeatedly and I would put money on you lot not punctuating your fucking text messages nor do you use actual words.

What is the bloody point in it all ? can somebody please enlighten me ?

I'm with you, Apocalypse. I feel your pain. Bloody awful txt spk and all that cr*p - it should be banned!

Have you read Jeremy Clarkson's article in the News Review section ot yesterday's Sunday Times? - I think you'd love it (can't link to it on here as it's protected by a paywall unfortunately)

YANBU.

RockOnMrs · 06/06/2011 22:01

Hmm emoticons, not my strong point.... Take two... Wink

RockOnMrs · 06/06/2011 22:02

Lil is an abbreviation of the beautiful name "Lily." That is the only context in which it should be used. Ever.

OTheHugeManatee · 06/06/2011 22:02

What's the cutoff beyond which the young cannot spell? 20? 25? 30?

ReindeerBollocks · 06/06/2011 22:03

About time someone said it. It makes my eyes itch.

Maybe we could invent a way to transfer posters to Netmums every time they use English in this abhorrent way?

RockStockandTwoOpenBottles · 06/06/2011 22:03

Couldn't agree with you more.

hellospoon · 06/06/2011 22:03

Can we please have a machine gun emoticon?

Please?

Just a lil one?

God it makes me think of:

a) Lilo Lil off've Bread
b) Lil-ets, the best a man can get (yes I know it's gillette)

Tut.

troisgarcons · 06/06/2011 22:06

I agree with you OP. Presumably though its half term as I cannot envisage a grown adult who would deliberately write like this!

Bloody hell, you should read the eBay forums ... they are full of huns, ikkles, wikkles, pickles and such shite... fortunatly they can spell as far a husband or partner and not use shite as DP DH in full slag off mode

ApocalypseCheeseToastie · 06/06/2011 22:07

AND what the FUCK is an LO ? Enlighten me ?

Evening MrsDB Stay away from the dog threads please Grin

mrsdonkeybucket · 06/06/2011 22:09

Evening Rock

RockStockandTwoOpenBottles · 06/06/2011 22:09

OR leg over I suppose. Depends on context.

stripeywoollenhat · 06/06/2011 22:09

perhaps the techs could develop a filter - you know, the sort other fora have for swearing.

though i think it sorts the wheat from the chav chaff, myself....

ChaosTrulyReigns · 06/06/2011 22:09

Apoco, please may I take you to my happy place?

[gentle voice]

There are gentle waves lapping the shore, camomile tea brung to you by serene, unobstrusive waiters, a softly tumbled Egyptian towel covering your very own steamer, hot stones warming to gently soothe you weary brow, and Mike Oldfield gently playing in the background to relax you.
