I really don't know how much more I can take of this

[ApocalypseCheeseToastie]

'lil', lols, oh so many fucking lols,

huns, the huns are after me

They don't use fucking paragraphs

They don't punctuate.

They don't even try to spell properly

They use non words.

They drop chav speak like it's litter.

They lower the tone, and they don't fucking care

hides thread

I ain't frigging typoing all that out again about my happy place.

[desperate measures]

Da. There is nothing more disheartening than seeing that a grown woman has used 'da' instead of 'the'.

lol hun's you's nead to get a life!!!!!!!

Their is more better fings dan you're grammer!!!!!!!

[grr]

Gosh, who are 'they'?

But generally .

They drop chav speak as though it's litter, surely?

They are everywhere on MN .

They should of paid more attention at school.

There is an epidemic of people saying "bare with me" at the moment. An EPIDEMIC, I tell you.

yes, and "I can't bare it - I should jolly well hope not!

Perennial - PLEASE realise that "lose" has only one o. It might sound the same as choose but it is not spelt in similar fashion - the word "loose" means "not tight".

Gah! loss of second speechmark in opening line! I wouldn't normally bother to comment but this is pedants' corner after all.

I dislike the rash of exclamation marks that pepper banal sentences on MN.

I brushed my teeth! I did the washing up! Grrrrrrrrr.

ps I am not talking about you Thumbwitch, I was composing my post before I saw yours .

I've noticed a recent outbreak of "hubbies" on Mumsnet.

I'm fed up of the number of times I read the word chav on MN

I don't read huge, long paragraphs with no punctuation or capital letters.

That'll teach 'em.

empire, that's ok - I know that my post required its peppering of ! because they were all proper exclamations .

Quenelle - totally agree and some people get very snarky when OPs are warned that they will get fewer answers due to the lack of legibility of their post.

aubergine - I agree re hubbies. It is strange to hear it in this day and age. To me it sounds very Stepford Wives.

Oh that's funny, empire - to me it conjures up some Hilda Ogden type from Lunnon, with slippers and a housecoat, curlers in her hair and a headscarf.

"Oo I've got a luvverly bit of fish for me 'ubby's tea" sort of thing.

I wholeheartedly agree re: 'lol'.

I do not believe for a second that anyone is really laughing out loud because they were (for example) woken at 3 am by a squawling brat, or because their 'hubs' has put up a shelf 'for them' (to use 2 examples from my facebook feed today).

My personal favourite....is the people who....punctuate using strange little rows of full stops....to indicate some sort of structure...to their thoughts.

Too many people use "lol" like a full stop.

Hubby - check. Far too many of those around. Why not DP/DH? Quicker and lacking in smugness.

Long paragraphs with no punctuation and i instead of a capital I - check

Can I add using txt spk in anything other than texts, the most annoying example being u instead of 'you'?

Makes people look like morons.

I am guilty of using strange little rows of full stops at times (ellipses?) to indicate train of thought.
