Not everyone is literate
Not everyone can go thru the school system a A student or even B
Not everyone gets it with their brain...their hands are the education
So be a little kinder, and just read the thread, if you don't understand what they are getting at pm them.

Its just polite not to pick on people.

And to top that off.... friends son failed school, but now is a top apprentice mechanic for a dude that deals with hot rods... and doing fantastically.

Tis xmas you know... be kind!

The BDOTGNZA isn't as vigilant as it once was. But if some people find sloppiness in written English acceptable, good on them.

I work with dyslexic children every day... I know how hard it is for them.. and we have the best book this planet can offer to teach them, one of my students is doing fantastically thanks to the efforts in encouragement and positivity from myself and his teachers, and this book. I understand you completely... I just think laziness is not always the thing... plus typing is not a nack... I type way too fast.

Ngggggggggg.

Wow. I suspect that was really hard to do given that they don't seem to be reading from a prompter.

Please stop misusing ellipses. It's irritatingly unnecessary.

Surely that statement should have ended with five or six exclamation marks (or exclamation points if you are that way inclined). :-)

All I'm saying is sloppy is as sloppy does. Doh!

And you can save yourself a lot of keystrokes by using a correct full stop at the end of a sentence, rather than the incorrect ellipses.
