RE: agents.....
Oh mercy - more 'netspeak'. Surely it doesn't take that much more time to type 'one' instead of '1' and why write 'z's when you could just as easily write 's's?
I hope this isn't indicative of the way our society is headed...

RE: come of it you all !!!
Sorrrry for being young! Thats how young people speak these days on the net incase you never noticed on many other sites.
I bet some of you write like that occasionally if not well your probably over 30 or something. No hang on.........actually, some people over 30 speak like that on the net too. And I bet you all think I must be stupid or something at school, especially english right? well wrong! I always get top marks usually over 95%. I only ever speak like that when i'm on the net coz so many people do it and I thought it wouldn't be a big deal to do what their doing but i'm obviously wrong. Why should I care about you all anyway? I only hope I helped mitch in a way....guess I would have he's 15 and he goes on the net.
bye y'all
(oh no....i did it again!.....oh yeah i dont care)
bye agen

Geeez! Some of us are over 30 twice ... I guess we ought to turn in our mice & settle right on back in our rocking chairs!
(BTW - hope contractions are covered soon in YOUR English syllabus, otherwise YOU'RE liable to lower that 95% average!)

RE: come OFF it you all
Contractions - shouldn't you have left school and be in a hospital somewhere if they start?
I don't have a problem with you, Kimmy, it's not your fault that your English is atrocious and the rest of society can't spell; of COURSE you should start to follow suit and talk like they do.
It's got nothing to do with being young; that's neither a reason to blame you nor an excuse for you to justify your spelling. It's not because YOUNG people speak like this that there are problems communicating. It's the people over thirty...specifically, it's the English teachers like the ones I had, who allowed grammar, syntax, spelling and punctuation errors to pass unchecked and undetected; enabling my contemporaries to pass out of highschool even though they could hardly spell or put a sentence together...some of them, believe it or not, are now in the teaching profession...and so it's hardly surprising that you get 95% - some of those same teachers probably failed maths as well.
You're obviously intelligent enough to assimilate the way others "speak" online, and tailor your responses appropriately to fit in, so as to be understood by the great majority who confuse the letter "z" with "s". I must agree with you, that the English language is full of ridiculous conundrums and inconsistancies anyway...WHY do we have a letter "c" when a "k" or an "s" will do? So many words follow rules of their own, it makes so much more sense to spell phonetically.
It's a conundrum that the modern computer keyboard was designed after the earliest typewriters that deliberately put the letters in the LEAST efficient positions to slow typists so the keys wouldn't get jammed. Now that we have technology, it makes sense to rearrange the positions of letters in the words to make up for it.
And the mobile phones that we send our SMS messages on are designed to be aesthetic rather than efficient, too....ABC-DEF-GHI LOOKS organised, but really I'd rather have the letters I use most often at the FRONT of the queue, so I don't have to press "PQRS" when I just want "S". No wonder so many people choose to substitute a "Z" instead. "WXYZ" saves so much time.
But I think the most useful attribute you have picked up is the correct attitude. Today's world of fast, abrupt, confrontational encounters requires an abrupt, no-nonsense, arrogant attitude. I can see that you have assimilated this style in order to fit in with the society you are trying to communicate with. The unwritten intention speaks so much. Your proper disregard for empathy or ettiquette clearly identifies you to your audience, so they know who they are dealing with and can respond accordingly. And yet, because you are simply adopting a code and want to show that you really DO have a good grasp of language, you employ wonderful irony in your delivery; the only properly constructed sentence in your whole paragraph was "Why should I care about you all anyway?" - showing a knowledgeable grasp of using the rules to break the rules, the content at odds with the structure.
We over-thirties obviously have much to learn.

RE: come of it you all !!!
I would just like to say that i enjoyed Graigs response to
Kims " COME OF IT YOU ALL" .
Firstly thank you Graig for correcting the of for off , i can't believe how many people write it that way.
I thoroughly enjoyed your wit you MUST be under 30yrs old because i'm 40yrs old and i know nothing about life and anyone over 30yrs couldn't think of anything so intelligent to write as you did. Well i better get back into my lounge chair as at my age i get tired real quick if i over do it ( standing for more than 5 minutes at a time ) OH TO BE UNDER 30 AGAIN. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

I think all this non-speller bashing is simply disgraceful. People who can't spell are people too!!! Don't be so damned spellist!! Honestly, first everyone gets on poor Kimmy's case becuase shes young and unintelligable and now we're getting stuck into people who know there are more important things in life than putting the apostrophe in the right place. What were spell checks invented for anyway!!!!! Sometimes people can become very sucessful despite not confroming to the gramaticly eliteist ruling ideology of discourse. Dam tha mann!!!!!!!!!!!

Hiya Leah
I'm not wielding my crusader's sword against spelling errors in general; that's an easy way to score points, but just as easily turns into a petty argument at Scrabble.
My cutting cavalier attitude is provoked more by the thought process BEHIND the words than the way they're constructed. If the thought's presented well, I'll forgive the way you spell. If your thought processes smell, be prepared - I'll give you hell!
And the thing that doth propel
me to chip at every shell
is this Satire where I dwell
(and believe that I excel).
It makes some people yell
that I should be locked in a cell,
but it really rings my bell
- in case you cannot tell.
Cheers,
Craig

RE: karma fit you all
Wow - it looks like you are going to be the man to beat at Da Doo Run Run this week, mate...
For an explanation of this impro-based in-joke, come along to Comedy Sportz, at the Art Gallery of Western Australia. Show starts at 7pm, and runs thursday, friday, and saturday. This thursday will be very interesting - a 'battle of the sexes', if you will - pitting Maggie McPhee, Libby Klysz and Claire Hooper up against Craig Williams, Luke Hewitt, Gib Nolte, with myself, Toby Malone, moonlighting on both teams.
Get along and have a look and get an idea what Da Doo Run Run really is - and whether or not crg's impressive rhyme scheme is able to be replicated under pressure on the night...!
Cheers
Toby

Hmmm....seems the pressure got to me that night; survived a few harder rhymes but dropped the ball on a dead easy one!
And although I found the irony entertaining, it really wasn't fair to challenge me to find a whole verse rhyming with "Craig"!
Last night of Comedysportz tonight folks, but the good news is that the last two shows by Spontaneous Insanity have been so popular that we are looking at the possibility of starting regular gigs at a permanent venue!

RE: karma charmer harm a llama
Thank you to all the people who understand me. Thank you for seeing my point of veiw and realising that knowlege isn't all about how you write on the net. You are the people who really are the number onez here because you focus on helping people and do it straight away instead of reading what people have written, then insulting them if it has alot of "netspeak", then not even helping at all. Those are the people who just end up without even helpin 1 bit but instead hurting a 13 year old teen. Far out! theres something wrong there isn't there? I hope you people who have insulted me realise what you have done and I hope you dont do it to anyother teen, ones enough but unfortunatley it was me but I do hope it doesn't happen again.
