What Exactly Is Pink? by °dalarty 1 week 5 days ago

Not too much for me to say about this wallpaper that hasn't already been said: Dalarty has provided a descriptive walk through all the way from the concept idea, to its execution and ultimately its fruition. And you can really see how that careful planning paid off. But it just goes to show, good ideas take time---and a whole lot of patience!

My grammar bez ebonics, just kidding. Paying attention to people's grammar is quite an interesting topics, because it isnt a topic that most people think about. Some people just do it to sound cool, or just write phonetically. Another interesting topic to follow up on this close attention to grammar would be paying attention to the movements of people when they talk, ie eye contact and hand gestures. You will notice a lot of things, lol notice how this comment has no flow in structure and is very random.

Net speak bugs me sometimes and I don't always know what some posters are getting at. I try to spell correctly but I don't spellcheck or anything. Bad grammar can be annoying to sift through but online is fast-paced and people don't always read through what they're typing.

I dont no y tis wood bother ne 1, cuz its rly ez 2 read win you no how 2 read!

Pfft! Sarcasm, of course. Net speak gets on my nerves when it's used excessively like the above example. I always do my best to spell correctly and use punctuation, but I don't use spellcheck. There are some words I can't spell, and I'll admit it, I'm no genius.
But I didn't go through school and learn how to read and spell somewhat correctly, just so I could get on the internet and bastardize the english language.

I look at the grammar of some of the users on different forums I go to, and I think to myself (depending on how they write): "This guy's a n00b brat", or "Time to reply..." and so on. Some presumed bad grammar actually can be pronounced to be good grammar.

A good example: "Your." It can also be pronounced as "You are". "NO U" can be pronounced as a long "Noo..." I can list other examples, but you can look that up.

But the grammar of the people who post, for me, can determine their personality and their place in the big picture.

I appreciate about the other people writes or says, don't know that it was right or wrong grammar because some people try to writes or says correctly.

what i hate about that is a sms language it's bother me a lot, because sometimes i don't know what the writer mean ~(@_@)~ emoticon

i still learn to write correctly even a lot of them are wrong written #(u_u)# emoticon but i try my best to improve my skill P(T_T) emoticon

I've learned english for 7 years and it's still not perfect but i tried
So i think that it's ok for me if grammar is wrong somehow
BUt if they misspell almost every words or they use numbers in the sentence as words...that really bugs me/(O_O)/ emoticon

Hy doods LOL you are s0 To^lly Nazi Y0, liek yu no, get a H^ng oVAr YerSelf.

seriously, nobody gives a f*ck on the net how you write, the lowering of intelligence you say? I dunno if that even applies, the internet is full of idiots, (not referring to anyone here), but you can be rest assured that it is not like if you can't spell right, people can't understand you.

I'm actually more disturbed by structure and punctuation.

I'm not a native speaker so like others I don't care.
Honestly now, it's good enough they can speak as easy as they do, and that their interested and smart enough to post.

Personally I only really get annoyed if they try to be smart and try to decorate their post with fancy meaningless words or riddles. Usually the result is a very stupid and very long post.

But in any case, as long as 99.9% of people can barely use the period why even bother with such trivial things as grammar. You'd think things like paragraphs and commas are universal language.

I'm not perfect, everyone have errors, but what it bugs me is (in my languaje) when people chanche stuff, like instead to write thye complete word, just write a letter that sounds similar, like this words in enmglish "why" = "y" or "see"= "c" [#]-(-_-) emoticon that's what really bugs me, grammar well sometimes is not the persons fault, is the teacher she/he had in school.

I usually don't mind how people write on the internet. People come to the internet to relax or let out steam. Maybe they don't want to care about grammar at that time or perhaps they're simply new to english. It doesn't really bother me. Although it does make things difficult to read sometimes, I try to understand.

It bugs me. Since English is my native language, I like to make sure that I speak correctly. I noticed that, as someone else noticed also, your grammer improves when typing on forums. I look at my first post and notice how much I messed up.

My brother gets really mad because I keep correcting him when he doesn't say the right thing.

I also find it funny when people put "to,two, or too" in the wrong place, and "there, their, and they're" in the wrong place.

Now that I think of it...
Whenever I cross someone that talks like that, I always tell him/her to talk properly or I'll just stop talking to him/her.

People use to talk normally after you tell them to, so...
