john.wells Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 I really don't want to sound like a jerk-bait, but how hard could it be to write "be good" compared to b gud? I just feel that the English language, or any other for that matter, is getting slaughtered at the expense of laziness. On a lighter note, good luck, I hope you find a nice bunch of fish! I am a little jealous, as I am laid up with a broken ankle and unable to participate in what I consider the best time of the year to be out on the water....... Please don't take offense at what I have said, I know that the times are changing with text messenging and everything, but I don't see a need to short-cut all of the time.

john.wells Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Yep, my mistake. I shouldn't get drunk and visit this site, at least not type anything. Sorry for the rant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goblueM Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 nah man, i agree with you... its just as fast for me to type the whole word, and a lot easier to read it - because i was taught proper english and its easier to not read with a bunch of shorthand text abbreviations. I have teacher friends and they say kids are turning in papers with this sort of language. unbelievable! Kids these days... (and I'm only 22 How'd you do out on the river?

Lotwfisher Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I can't believe how bad the writing has got. I get emails from friends that are used to using their phones or msn messaging and I get so frustrated reading it....And with the reply box having a spell check on it too you think it would be easier to do it properly.

john.wells Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I feel awful about starting this for Whitetail's sake. I hope you don't have any hard feelings. I do stand by using proper English and when possible. Mistakes happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
