(ok - that was a re-take on a good one somewhere else...)

Colloqiaulism used to be a means of verbal conveyance between people of whom origins were shared. Now it's a universal theme such as the "texting language".

I even use the texting language myself, but I still try to stress that knowing how to use our language is a needed skill. Communicating can be very stressful if someone doesn't speak the same "language". That being said, most folks don't want to do business with some who seems illiterate.

Most common mistakes as we are aware:

Know and No
There, They're, and Their
Sense, Cents, and Scents
Pole, poll, pool
Clip versus Magazine
Double negatives in the positive
Droppin' "g's" and usin' "'s"
Lack of capitalization and/or punctuation

...et al, ad nasuem.

However, I don't mind being funny sometimes and showing my "ghetto-ness" and using slang, colloquialism, curse words, etc. But a newbie showing up and typing like a pre-pubesent gangsta' to where things just really don't make sense grates on me sometimes.... I know not why.

But I get over it. Sometimes I'll say something... sometimes I'll just say, "Yo homey, u's da fool!"

I've always wanted to get a "double g" (ghetto gangsta) and a business man to a negotiating table... I think it'd be a riot.

And those guys that always uses elipsis marks too!....

Wait, what was this thread about...

run-on sentences with no punctuation or capitalization really chap my ass as a rule if it makes my head hurt it's gonna make my reply less kind

Remember, there's a difference between helping your Uncle Jack off his horse, and helping your uncle jack off his horse...

elipsis just for you, BigBear [LOL]

Yeah "your" and "you're" are becoming used in the wrong context too. That's another one that bugs me.

i think it is funny how these threads can go from damn near anything to something about the spelling or grammar used in the thread. i have given up on the shift key, so, for those of you who like raz on others, you are going to like my posts from here on. i will however use their, there, and they're correctly, oh and you're and your. that is all about grammar, the shift key has nothing to do with that.
