I don't speak english in rl, and my language's grammar is different than in english. <.< I didn't think the Fins spoke at all. >_>

Serious answer though, I'm dyslexic. Let's say I type you'er instead of you're, I mixed up two letters. Let's say I use your instead of you're, now I'm using the wrong word.

I like to write like I'm dyslexic at times.
It's nice to think in a different order at times I tell you.

There is also a button called "Preview" ... which is right next to the "Submit" button. I wonder how many people actually use the "Preview" button.
Honestly though, I don't really care much as long as the post in question is at least readable.
Also, yeah... those "Your an idiot" claims... really are ironic.

Just as good as people trying to say they don't give a damn via "I could care less" ... well erm. Yes? You could care less? So you actually care?
It's "I couldn't care less". Jebus.

This one drives me up the wall too.
The other for me is "irregardless." That is not a word. It's a double negative anyway: the -less already means "without regard," the ir- is redundant.

Also, for those of you who claim to be lazy and not want to type the "'" and the "e",
"u're" is the same length as "your" and is more correct, so no excuses there, either.
really, are you really going to *** debate this?

I wanna abbreviate things to make things easier on me, for instance, this <-
Becomes this -> "Iabbrv."

Welcome to the increase in the evolution of written language. 500 years ago nobody had the internet but if they saw this ***on a wall they would be confused as ***. Context based differences in our written language are going the way of the dinosaur, dead as ***. You can get all per-snikity about peoples grammatical errors, orrrr
YOU CAN REALIZE THE INFORMATION WAS STILL PASSED ALONG TO YOUR BITTER *** BRAIN.

I once saw grafitti on a train, that said "Joe Vega eats man-***." Think like 500 years from now, that train is dug up and they think it's some message from the gods, and they start chanting it and stuff..

You do realize that trying to get internet-*** to practice actual logical language is the same as attempting to stop them from fapping. It's not going to happen and will only end in massive trolling and a sticky mess.
