Ah

The death of correct spelling more like.

Can I respectfully suggest you check out other parenting boards, where they have tickers and pink sparkly bits.

Ohhh and a lot of text speak. [shudder]

lol@littlelapin

Irritable Vowel Syndrome, surely ll?

I don't even understand the thread title, so

YABU or YANBU, I don't have a clue.

Why is txt spk in inverted commas in the title? That doesn't make sense. The whole title is text speak.

Can someone translate for me please?

i don't know what the title says either

I came to MN after having been a chat room user, some of the things i shorten are habit from being in there every day! I wouldn't say i text speak but i do shorten a few words (ppl, u, 2...)

Well MOM.

Stop it right now.

YABU beacuse the English language is a beautiful thing and to use text speak is both lazy and crass. Only my opinion, obviously.

I don't understand the title.

Please could somebody translate it for me?

ah! Thanks. Couldn't understand the 'vr' bit. Rather proves the point then.

If you want people to know what the feck you're on about, don't use text speak.

that would be because, naturally

LOL i knew it would be you that told me off!

I don't do it so much anymore (i don't think)its' mostly if i have typed too fast. I think i have the same keyboard as cod

and punctuation....wel that just gets chucked in any old place

ty (that one allowed?) for the translation LL!

At least you make an effort. It is the people who are either ill educated or lazy or quelle horreur.....both..... that are trying to drag this board down to OK and Jordan level that really wind me up.
