So I'm a spelling freak, flame away.
Me, too, Intimidator. "Series," "prolly," "all your [blank] are belong to us," and similar oft-used items seem to be either inside jokes that have taken on a life of their own, or Web-speak, or both. I overlook most of it, since there's nothing I can do about it. Language is an ever-evolving thing, after all. For example, correct use of adverbs (most words ending with 'ly') seems to be a dying form here in the U.S. I haven't got a clue why.

These are termed "memes." Wait a minute, "meme" is a meme, isn't it? A meme is a terrible thing to waste.
Sorry.

Because everyone is adverbally challenged.

Glad somebody is mature on here. I'm beginning to think the average age on here now is somewhere close to 13 or 14.
