"Ok, so we're not academics or anything, but so fed up with getting messages that say 'wat u up2 lol, u luk hot'. Christ alive, let's start speaking in sentences!! Rant over! X" Yes, it annoys us. In fact, we are annoyed at our own ability to be annoyed, too. | |||

"I am more upset by people thinking that being fussy about grammar is in any way comparable to being a Nazi to be honest." It's not, obviously, just as being a cheeky monkey has little to do with resembling a chimp... | |||
"I am more upset by people thinking that being fussy about grammar is in any way comparable to being a Nazi to be honest. It's not, obviously, just as being a cheeky monkey has little to do with resembling a chimp..." Of course  neither upsets me very much I know its just an expression | |||

"Thousands have died (RIP) in Nepal and you worry about text speak??? WOW!!! If that's your priority then God help us! Textspeakers of this world, unite! As long as my men have big cocks and are clean and arrived on time I couldn't care less about textspeak "And who said that this was a priority of ours? It's a conversation topic, no more, no less. If you'd like to talk about Nepal then we're all ears! | |||

And we're glad!"Good! I'm not keen on text speak but as I said earlier it doesn't annoy me that much however if we get a message or see a profile that's text speak only we won't engage with those people. I do use lol and imho myself though and sometimes if I'm really surprised omg | |||
"I am more upset by people thinking that being fussy about grammar is in any way comparable to being a Nazi to be honest. It's not, obviously, just as being a cheeky monkey has little to do with resembling a chimp..." Well, obviously some people think that that the two things are linked because the two words are up there together, at the top of the page, in great big coloured letters... Nobody should be called a Nazi, just because they have standards and wish to express their preference!  | |||
| |||
"i think it is always interesting that when subjects like colour, size, age for example come up... people always says resepct the preference... but whenever someone mentions a preference for "good grammar" that always seems to touch a nerve" The ops are referring to themselves as grammar Nazis I think. | |||
"Ahhh text speak hate it! Though you will get the occassional lol or pmsl out of me. " I'm fine with one or two of these. It's the use of 'u' instead of 'you', 'bk' instead of 'back' and 'wht' or 'wot' instead of 'what' etc that bothers me At least with lol and pmsl it's an abbreviation of a saying or phrase consisting of a few words, but 'u' instead of 'you' is saving two letters and so just comes across to me as lazy. | |||

 . However, I hate the lack of punctuation and paragraphing. A huge block of text with neither, requires reading and rereading... So I skip it. Surely to add commas when one naturally pauses doesn't take the genius of Einstein. | |||

"I don't care how people spell in their messages, as long as they are fit and fuckable!!!" They might be fat not fit. Alas! For the want of a vowel, the message was lost. For the want of a message, the meet was lost. For the want of a meet, the verification was lost. For the want of a verification, the all day bisexual group food orgy was lost. All for the want of an 'i'  | |||

"Makes deciding to delete so much quicker. Don't even have to open the message. " I agree but horses for courses. What I perceive as sloppy will just wash over others, completely unnoticed. By the same token, they might pass us by because they think we are too pernickety. It's all ok and no different to the fat/thin , safe/bare back or white/non white arguments. If A isn't for you, move on until you find B, who might be what you are looking for. | |||

"No , before but or before and, for that matter - sheesh !" The oxford or serial comma is used before and. | |||

"Thousands have died (RIP) in Nepal and you worry about text speak??? WOW!!! If that's your priority then God help us!" What about adding overuse of WOW! to that list as well. | |||
