It's ironic that some of you whine when someone's grammar isn't 100% perfect, yet you use words like lol, LMAO, OMFG, etc:D
 
That also doesn't qualify as "ironic". Hypocritical, maybe, but not ironic.

And to follow up on Kritish's point, YOU also used "etc", which is short for et cetera. Now, that might qualify for irony.

Not really, using an acronym for "laugh out loud" or "oh my god" isn't improper grammar. You might not use them for the college thesis, but they don't break any rules.

That's the point though. Some of the people who go around bashing people for their grammar think this is English 101.

I only point out bad grammar when it makes reading difficult.

if your going to write like this without any punctuation marks including periods and you don't capitalize the beginning of sentences then i won't know what your talking about or how your saying it we won't know where one thought ends and the next begins nobody should have to endure a paragraph structured this badly on a regular basis

However, I let sentence fragments go all the time. Even I use them. A lot.

No one's perfect, but for god's sake make sure your posts are readable.

Since when does a few missing periods and capitalizations make a post unreadable?


tis is a unredable pst
 
I punctuate as I choose too, and use whatever words I want, because frankly, you should all be happy I even talk to y'all :D
 
Not unreadable. Just difficult to read.
Well, honestly there's no need to call people a "dumbass" when they make a couple typing errors by mistake{like certain posters like to do}.
 
It's tempting for those of us with impeccable grammar to deride those of us lacking because it makes us feel superior. Everyone likes to feel superior, but what one may not realize is that a true measure of a human being's worth is how one treats those over whom one might have an advantage.

Some of us just have pet peeves, you know. I can't stand it when people write "ne" instead of "any." It doesn't matter how many times I see it, I still get confused when someone writes "ne1" or "ne way." When I see that s***, I correct it for the sake of my own sanity!
