We are just typing our thoughts.
Not taking a grammar test.

But i see what you are getting at.
Today’s “Children” neither know how to spell or write.
It is really pretty much over.
OVER.
I read the comments section of my local paper and just drop my head in sorrow.

I know.
That’s why I keep my mouth shut, so to speak.

[and Lord knows I’m the queen of omitted words!]...:))

What annoys *me* is when I pay good money for an instructional book [art, computers, Photoshop and the like] and find error after error on every page.

I pay $40 [often much more] for something and nobody could bother to take the time to proofread it?

I hate to sound like my mother...but...kids today?

I haven’t a clue what they’re saying.

It all sounds like “text speak” to me.

I actually heard one girl say to another in the mall “LOL”.

Now we acronym instead of giggling?
