People of MN read this please

[BupcakesandCunting]

I don't really enjoy correcting spelling errors but I've seen this one so much on MN recently that I typed out a text to my DH this morning and wrote "rediculous" instead of "ridiculous". It's worked it's way into my written vernacular.

RIDICULOUS, people, RIDICULOUS.

Thangeweverymuch love you mwahmwah xxx

This fread has made me snort! I inwardly seethe at lose/loose but I accept it makes me an old fart. Last week dd had a whole English lesson where they were being taught 'text speak' DH and I were literally shaking our heads in disbelief!

Being TAUGHT text speak?????? WTAF???? Sorry, I hate multiple question marks but I need to convey my whatthefuckedness. TAUGHT text speak?! I had to re-read your post 5 times because I was sure you meant being taught NOT to use text speak.

TonsillitIS

that is all

Being Teached text speak? discusting.

What did she learn in her textspeak lesson? What was the point of it? Just 'why?' basically.

It's counsellor, not councillor/counciller

Have we done "I brought a new one in the shop" and "I except your apology"?

I am LITERALLY gob-smacked by all this.

Lighten up lurker fgs

MrsKwazil I feel you have made perhaps one of the most important points ever on MN, so I would just like to emphasise it in case anybody missed it.

Should HAVE
Could HAVE

That is all.

Text speak!

What did she learn?

Shudda wudda cudda

I luffs the word Horrid

You cant take it away from me!!

However,if anyone else uses the word hubby I shan't be responsible for my actions.

Oh,and 'bran' rather than 'brand' what the heck is that all about?!

Hubby wubby hubby kinsy winsy

HUBBY.

Or missing the 'g' of the end of every word possible....I mean,how much time does that actually save you?!

Alot of posters need to be more discrete.

Gah.

The Alot

I used to have no problem at all with "lose" and "loose".

But I have seen them muddled (and discussed) so often on MN, I am starting to doubt my usage.

Shouldn't of

I typed their instead of there on fb the other day. It was horrid

I think it's your perogative to write it any way you want.

Ok, it is a difficult one but that should make it easier to remember.

Prerogative
