Grammar Freaks Unite!

I don't have a problem with texting. No, I think it's a nice easy way to stay in touch with people. But it does get on my nerves when people a.) talk to me using text lingo, or b.) use it for regular everyday emails or in school reports. For some reason, if there's not good grammar, this little red light in my head starts flashing like there's an emergency somewhere in the Southwest; perhaps the hippos are on a rampage. Either way, it bothers me when people say, "Whoa! Sea! Totes cute shirt! And bonus! It's totes not inapprops! We should go to the caf later today, too, don't you think?" Will it really kill you to say one more syllable to complete the word? The poor word just got lopped in half! So that is why I like this picture:


Got to love those little fun sayings. :}

That is all.

  3. That picture is priceless! ^.^

    I text in complete sentences with capital letters and periods; which has been known to irritate people just as much as the aforementioned issue.
