Bad grammar/spelling/punctuation disease

[Mr. Clean]

Is IA an example of how hard America's education system is failing? All day I see the most ridiculous spelling issues and misuse of words such as their/they're/there, to/too, your/you're.

I know I don't always use capitalization and occasionally fuck up on a sentence or two, but there is no excuse for some of the shit that I see spilled all over peoples' posts.

So is 80% of IA that retarded or does no one really care how they portray themselves on a public board? Oh and I understand an occasional shitty post if someone was in a hurry or just really didn't care about a nonchalant post, but there's way too many times when I KNOW someone just really doesn't understand proper use of the English language.

Maybe this is all just coming from the fact that I've had to write papers for about the last 15 years and consistently do well. It may just be ingrained in me that when you type... do it right. I don't really know. This thread isn't to be a ginormous grammar nazi and make me out to be a douchebag. I just can't stand reading a bunch of posts that look like a 3rd grader wrote them.


A couple that I cannot stand:

Definitely. Please fucking spell this word right.

I gave up trying to correct people's grammer on here a long time ago. It always ends up being an arguement about how that is their "style". And on another note, I HATE when people type in all caps. It makes me want to shoot a kitten out of my potato gun.

Shit's getting real.

[Echonova]

I don’t have a problem with “leet speak” or texting abbreviations when they are called for. But I hate when people use that language when there is no need. If you are playing an online game and any time spent typing is likely to get you killed, its normal to type something like “srsly hlp me loc8 it”. But I find it annoying when someone sends an email that they had all the time in the world to type, and it reads like something they texted while weaving in and out of traffic.

Now read this: http://www.tvweek.com/news/2009/03/sci_fi_channel_aims_to_shed_ge.php

The Sci-Fi channel is changing its name (effective July 7th) to “Syfy“. Why are they doing this? because it’s “actually this is how you’d text it,” … “It made us feel much cooler, much more cutting-edge, much more hip, which was kind of bang-on what we wanted to achieve communication-wise.”

Why is it cooler to name things the way 12 year old kids would text them? That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard! It’s bad enough that kids these days cannot even tell time on an analog clock, but once marketing “geniuses” like these tards are done, people won’t bother to use proper english anymore.

I guess everyone else wiill follow suit now, so I might as well make some predictions on future name changes:

* Burger King -> bk “hv it ur way lol”
* McDonalds -> mcds “Im <3 it”
* WalMart -> wmrt “alwys lo $”
* Nike -> nIkE “jst doit, dnt b gay”

I won’t even go into how strange it is that the Sci-Fi channel does not want to be associated with Sci-Fi stuff…because it’s associated with “geeks and dysfunctional, antisocial boys in their basements”….what the hell?

Ah well, I guess I’m done ranting for now, kthnxbai

Believe it or not, bad grammar can actually be good for you. It can actually serve you better than good grammar can. I'm not saying you should ignore the rules specified in the textbook. What I'm saying is that you should know when to stick to the rules and when to break them.

It all depends on the context of your writing. You need to pay obsessive attention to spelling and grammar when you're writing academic papers, business correspondence, legal papers and other such formal documents. When you're doing any of the following things, however, you have the license to break quite a few rules:

1. Creative writing. The greatest novelists and poets of English literature routinely ignored proper punctuation, subject-verb agreement, and the other basic rules your English teachers told you to follow. Think James Joyce, Salman Rushdie, Gertrude Stein and Emily Dickinson. The fascinating things they did with English wouldn't have been possible if they stuck to the rules.

2. Blogging. Popular bloggers naturally have well-written posts. However, these posts are written in an informal style that doesn't bother with the more obscure rules. That's because blogs aim to communicate with ordinary people in the most effective way possible.

3. Speechwriting. US President-elect Barack Obama's acceptance speech is a very good example of how to break grammatical rules in order to communicate in the most effective manner possible. Take a look at this excerpt:

It's the answer that led those who've been told for so long by so many to be cynical and fearful and doubtful about what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.

For situations not included in this list, ask yourself these two simple questions:

Who are you writing for? Is it your boss? Your friends? Your clients? Is your target audience highly educated or not? What socio-economic class do these people belong to?

What effect do you want to have on your readers? Do you want to entertain them? Inform them? Impress them? Do you want them to buy your product or service?

[Bajjani]

I think that worrying so much about peoples grammar/spelling/etc on here should be the least of your concerns. Its just the intrawebz, doesn't really affect anything. I really don't care what my posts look like as long as its done well enough someone can understand what I'm saying.

[Lankhoss]

My favorite is the people who bitch when you correct them, and they're all "Sorry I didn't put all my effort into using perfect grammer (always spelled this way) and spelling!!!"

Because obviously it takes ALL SORTS OF MENTAL POWER AND EFFORT TO USE 4th GRADE SPELLING AND GRAMMAR SKILLS WHEN YOU COMMUNICATE.

It takes me so much longer to type out some mockery of these retards with "u" and "their" misused, as well as using "sale" instead of sell and vice versa, etc...than it does to just fucking type something the correct way.

Don't think any of these points relate to the kids on these forums that still live at home and will probably work at Dunkin Donuts until they're 35 or so.

There's also a big difference between people who know better, but are smart enough to use their own rules in an artistic and expressive way that can illustrate something to people, and fucking morons who just literally don't even know how to talk.

I wouldn't put anyone here on IA on the same linguistic plane as Joyce or Burroughs or Kerouac. There's a difference between brilliance and ignorance.

I'm all about Naked Lunch or On The Road. However, when I see a post on IA with no punctuation, capitalization etc, I just assume the poster belongs to the lowest common denominator of humanity and I move on to another post.:lmfao:

[TheProfiteer]

I have always had a problem with punctuation and spelling, even as a child. Probably because even though English has become my primary language its not my first.

heck just in the religion forum I was convinced that "conscience" wasnt even a word, up until I looked it up. I was so sure he was trying to write "conscious" that i did not even consider my ignorance.

Am I ignorant of all the propper english phonetics and grammar? Yes.

Does that make me an idiot, well I personally dont think so. Then again, who wants to consider themselves an idiot.

[Jason..]

Is IA an example of how hard America's education system is failing? All day I see the most ridiculous spelling issues and misuse of words such as their/they're/there, to/too, your/you're.

I know I don't always use capitalization and occasionally fuck up on a sentence or two, but there is no excuse for some of the shit that I see spilled all over peoples' posts.

So is 80% of IA that retarded or does no one really care how they portray themselves on a public board? Oh and I understand an occasional shitty post if someone was in a hurry or just really didn't care about a nonchalant post, but there's way too many times when I KNOW someone just really doesn't understand proper use of the English language.

Maybe this is all just coming from the fact that I've had to write papers for about the last 15 years and consistently do well. It may just be ingrained in me that when you type... do it right. I don't really know. This thread isn't to be a ginormous grammar nazi and make me out to be a douchebag. I just can't stand reading a bunch of posts that look like a 3rd grader wrote them.


A couple that I cannot stand:

Definitely. Please fucking spell this word right.

At least you make the effort and try to produce something readable.

most people on IA type long paragraphs like this witout ne spellingz or punctautions and lots of mistaeks and stuff its just a big wall of text thats hard to read because you need a bookmark or something but who ever uses a bookmark on a computer screen and speaking of questions you really cant tell if questions are being asked when people don't use question marks or punctuations and capitulazashions like their sopposed to doo people says its a waist of time to learn how to right correckt but rilly it all comes down to how sirius you want people to taek you're posts

I understood all of that. When you're able to read something and tell the difference in the way words are phrased, it's not hard to distinguish what's what. Just because a person doesn't add the correct punctuation, doesn't justify another person to make a thread and bitch about it. Remember, this is the internet and nothing needs to be serious. I promise it will not look good on a resume, by telling them you can type in perfect order on an online forum. Which is meant for automotive pleasure.

I don't try to impress folks, but instead, I take pride in myself and the way I present myself. I tend to see more respect to people that present themselves in a respectable manner than those who feel it is cool to type like idiots. Not to mention, for me, it's much easier to type in an educated style. It takes longer for me to type as if I were a moron than it does to type normally. Later, QD.

[Jason..]

You butcher the English language, in written form and in its entirety, on a regular basis.,Ok,';

[Halfwit]

What

[BobbyFresco]

lets not go and point any fingers now.


Like someone already mentioned, at least you make a point to relay what you're saying in a way that most people can understand...

The whole shorthand, butcher the spelling of words, add a z on the end of everything, and gross obliteration of the English language in general has gone too far...Internet or not, how you present yourself is how people judge you...and I'm sorry but I can't and will not take someone seriously when they intentionally type in a manner such as that, which is diplayed very prominently, on this forum.

[ShooterMcGavin]

i can has stuff for sell now?

[ultm8mind]

This is a subject that I also find comical. Kind of like the guy that "doesn't correct people's grammer anymore." I guess if they quit correcting your spelling, you can stop correcting their GRAMMAR, lol. Love it when people attempt to correct others and are wrong, haha.....but hey just my :2cents:

Amen

[ultm8mind]

I gave up trying to correct people's grammer on here a long time ago. It always ends up being an arguement about how that is their "style". And on another note, I HATE when people type in all caps. It makes me want to shoot a kitten out of my potato gun.
LOL, yes this guy before you ask.

hey i just did that the other day, i was trying to convince homie Geoff that he was a fool for writing conscience.

When I first saw it, I started laughing histerically <--- see I spelled it wrong, i know it, im about to go look it up. Oh look its spelled hysterically, god damn y's.

anyway, when I found out that Conscience, is really a word, and not only that spelled correctly, oh boy did I feel like a fool.

and I couldnt even spell Poaching right, I spelled it pouching.


:doh:


i cant spell for shit.

But how seriously would you consider the advice of someone who posts like that, especially if its something technical? I'd be highly skeptical of someone offering me advice on a motor build when they only have the language function of a 3rd grader. :dunno:

[ultm8mind]

Ah....so a muffin top?
pretty much, that fatty part between the cooch and the beltline.....

Only sexy on a girl in good shape. All others are just fat all around. :yes:

Lower than that. Its like a fat roll in the front of their pants. :ninja:

I read something he other day that I found shocking. The standard used in determining our literacy rate in the United States is the 4th grade level. So 99.999% (or whatever %) of people in America can read... on a 4th grade level.

There isn't much info out there on what percentage of adults function at the level they should (at least HS level). The sad part is that at my high school I remember kids graduating who could barely read. How do you get to be a high school senior when you can't read out loud from easier books like Moby Dick or Huckleberry Finn? I could understand HS kids not being able to read from something like Joyce, but seriously... wtf.

[ultm8mind]

Lulz...

How do you know so much about that?
Hmmm..?:lmfao:
I know so much about that because I see it alot. Not really anyone I know, and definitely not the wife. Since I am in the Army, you know the troops have names for everything to include that, LOL. Just one of those things......

[ultm8mind]

A sexy girl in good shape? I dunno if they'd have that, maybe if they pushed a kid or two out and let themselves go during pregnancy.....But usually on the "bigger" girls. Cause I have yet to see an in shape girl with it, now I'm going to start looking, haha. I am not hating, they need love too, lol. Just not from this guy.

Maybe I'm off in my definition of FUPA then. I'm thinking more the sexy little mound formed in that area on a girl in good shape. Know what I mean?

[ultm8mind]

The one that hides the lips?? I know all too well of that "love mound." LOL......

The difference between you and the rest of those idiots, is you actually learned something. Hell, in the last couple of posts I've read of yours, I've seen that you LEARNED to spell 2 new words. That, in itself, is quite an acomplishment.

What gets me, is I almost failed English in highschool, yet I can put together a post better than most of the people I talk with on ANY forum. It boggles one's mind.

im not lying when I say I cant spell worth a damn (and the IE at work doesnt have auto spell check)

this would of been ok if I had some form of mathematical skills, but hells nah, i forget math faster than I would forget and ugly girls name.

[Mr. Clean]

holy shit this thread blew up. i guess this is, indeed, a decent topic. despite the fact that the larger part on page 7 was about a FUPA lol.

the bottom line is that i see a lot of people on here who, i know for a fact, have no idea how to speak or type. it's just frustrating i guess. i'm certainly not trying to be a nazi about it. i just can't believe that most of these people have graduated high school, but yet still have no idea how to put a sentence together. we all make a mistake here and there. that's completely understandable. it's like someone previously said: there's a difference between casual and having no idea what you're doing at a keyboard. it's just embarassing at the lack of care that goes into communicating on here. billions and billions of your own dollars go into teaching everyone how to speak and write... why can't we just make it good practice to attempt to get some shit right here and there?

[Dylan]

ur cumin off as an dooshbag justin u dont has to single me out cuz i cant spell too good.haha..i do understand completely with what you are saying.i typically type my comments as i would say them.and if that were the case for most of the people on here then wow..ignorance is an epidemic.

You're as White as they come and you're just as ignorant as your every day, run of the mill hoodrat, particularly when it comes to articulating yourself online...

Sadly, there are millions of people just like you..with the same skin tone and cultural background...infecting this world with continual stupidity, day in and day out...Instead of pointing your finger at others, you should pointing the finger at yourself and trying to work at that which you're not efficient, instead of saying " Well I'm just not that good at it anyway".

One sentence. You had one shot and you blew it.
This is what I'm talking about..

Do you enjoy being stupid? The butt of jokes? You know...the person people whisper about in a crowd and you wonder if you're been talked about?

For fuck's sake. Pick up a fucking book...Expand that miniscule mind of yours.
Do something with yourself other than accepting the fact that you're a fucking dumbass and doing shit which is expected of morons. Try being a decently capable human being for once in your life...

Think you can handle that?
