Subject: My Gosh...What Has Come of Humanity?

"Only the dead have seen the end of war." - Plato

A friend of one of my friends on Facebook commented on my friend's status a few times...Here is one of her comments -

"Luv u too ma. Cuz if he hurts u I wuld hve 2 go ova ther n beat his butt lol jk ma. U jis do ur tgong n dnt wrry wat ppl say jus promise me u stay in skool n get gud grades"

All of her comments were spelled in this same horrid fashion. I can understand if someone is in a hurry, that they may use "u" instead of "you" and stuff like that; but misspelling words like just, worry, school, etc is simply absurd. When you spell "good" like "gud" it doesn't look like you were in a hurry, or even lazy - it just makes you look dumb.

What say you, Flood? Is it reasonable for people to type like this all the time, or am I overreacting?

Pure Insanity
The point of war is not to die for one's clan, but it's to make the other bastard die for his
Right before you die, there is always a chance to save yourself, sieze that chance and live to fight another day
The best way to kill someone is to fight them with the same weapons they use and make them know you are better than them, not because of superior weaponry, but because of superior skill.
Hidden in the shadows, Clothed in camo, Armed to the teeth. Hunting.

I you find this appalling, I suggest you go locate the most remote cave in your region and start living in it immediately.

If your biggest concern is another person's spelling and grammar on Facebook you honestly are one dull person and need to find something to do.

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

Hahaha! You guys are hilarious. Because I spend thirty seconds to share something with you guys, I suddenly have no life? Especially after it took you a whole three seconds to find this thread and post on it? Right...

The thing that bothers him most is someone's grammar on Facebook. Man what I wouldn't give for that to be my top concern, instead of bills, insurance, rent, life etc...

It's really sad how judgmental you guys are. I have no clue how you came to the conclusion that this is my "top concern" when I said nothing of the sort. You are pathetic.

I feel passionate about ending poverty, so one time a hired a homeless man to type for me (it gets really tiring). I later realized that the man was blind and missing a thumb and pointer finger on his left hand and a ring finger on his right. He also told me he didn't know how to type, or I imagine that's what he said, though it sound more like "HHRRRRURURUUUURURRRRR." Now that I think of it, he might have been dumb as well.

Anyway, this homeless man's typing looked eerily similar to that of the individual described in the OP. Though, after a little practice, I believe his typing started to improve and look even better. After a year, just before he tragically died (I think it might have something to do with the giant tumor in his belly area, though I'm not sure), his typing was considerably more understandable than the typing presented in the OP.

You take one person's comments and then jump to the next "logical" step of "what has become of humanity" like it is oh so super important that this one person's grammar can and will affect the entirety of the species.

Don't be dumb.

Actually, I never once said you didn't have a life. Glad you found me hilarious when I wasn't attempting to be.

Congratulations. You're literate!

Typing entirely in shorthand has always baffled me. It doesn't take that much extra effort to spell words correctly and create grammatically correct sentences, but it makes worlds of difference in the way you are perceived by the people who read what you post.
