Text speak - a good thing or the devil's work?
#121
This thread is about text speak, but let's not forget about capital letters and punctuation.
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

Abbreviations are fine, but one that does annoy me is over use of PMSL. Especially when someone uses it when something is not even funny. LOL is fine, but probably gets used far too much. When typing it, how many people do actually laugh out loud? I suppose it's used to show that you're are speaking in jest or not being serious. 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".
