Snatchbeast has a message for all those who type abbreviations or use l33t. She posts in Brutal Honesty because, as everyone knows, this is the best way to get a message to the internet at large. "why are people retarded? [sic]"

hate at the internet
why are people retarded?

ok, i dont capitilize.. i'm lazy. but i do type entire words. occassionally i'll type thru instead through, etc.. but.. what i'm getting at here is this.

lol. i fucking hate lol. i despise it with passion. lmao. roflmao. is "haha" so hard to type? or even "hehe"?

brb g2g LOL or the ever so popular LOLz.. r u LOL? 2 b b4 u is gr8.

this is like when a few years back the system was discussing teaching fucking ebonics in public schools. laziness.

hello fat america. sit on the couch, with the tv and frozen dinners, watching dr phil via satellite and remote, calling in pizza delivery, buying the fucking "clapper"... just keep typing LOL.. i dare you..

and w00t is just as bad.


Unsurprisingly, LOLLERSKATES and the ROFL COPTER make an early appearance, followed by LOLLERBATE and LOLLERCAUST. Also unsurprisingly, true grammer whores make themselves known. Zhzhblyad is the first to comment on the hypocrisy of bitching about online grammar when not using capitals and using ellipses incorrectly. Then Riotlounge brings up geese and ganders, and Revenantrose brings up the use of symbolic language and shows her knowledge of synonyms. Surprisingly, no one seems to bring up the OPs complete lack of spelling capability, but since doing so virtually guarantees having a spelling error in the correction, I suppose I can understand why.

All and all, small but 5|-|1|\|`/.

Also, apparently, the structural formation of ellipses is up for debate.

"capitalize." kthxdie.

She doesn't seem to be getting the point that not using the Shift key and then berating people for being lazy because they type LOL is hypocritical.

Jargon, slang, and abbreviations are part of the evolution of language. There are people who take it to ridiculous extremes and use it in stupid ways, but that's not the language, that's the people.

I hope you understand.

I lost any sympathy I may have had for this guy right there. Yeah, people who litter their conversation with LOL are annoying, but LOL is at least an acronym. "Thru" instead of "through" is just fucking lazy, and makes the baby Melle cry. *stabs*

Oh my darling ellipsis... WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO YOU?!

And that is NOT class! The poor thing's a mutant! All the other punctuation marks are going to laugh and tease it on the playground now!

I hope you're happy snatchbeast. You've ruined this poor piece of punctuation's life forever!

Grammar is an absolute.

You are not grammatical.

Therefore, you're being a hypocrite. ^^

Have a nice day.
