As I learned from a post in here not so long ago punctuation and capitalisation are the differences between helping your Uncle, Jack, off a horse and helping your uncle jack off a horse and there's a big difference there

Can't stand text speak though, you just know the person using it has their trousers tucked into their socks and wears a stupid hat. OK they're not all like that, but you know they are doing it to try and be cool and that annoys me.
Saying that I have a VTA on the Impreza along with a NUR Spec R and don't see them as "chavvy". I put them on because I like them, not because I thought other people would.

FULL CAPS TYPING IS ANOTHER THING THAT I HATE. Find it hard to read quickly.

Oh, and another thing as regards to VTA's, spelling and things that are annoying. It's a Bailey, not a Baileys, there is no "s".
