ok...
I hate when "peEpLE tALk *LyKE* dIs n ThYnk dAt *~*tHey*~* R s000 Kewl"
I did not go to school for X number of year, and work my ass off to learn the English fucking language and the proper way of using it, for all my education to go flying out the door for that shit. No. I think one of my biggest problem with the "ghetto" (as I am calling it right now) way of writing is when they take out or add letters that were either needed or unnecessary. For instance, take the word "the. pretty simple word. three letters. Now tell me why people feel the need to go "da" or "tha"? Especially "tha". Why the fuck do you feel the need to put an A in there and not the E? It's the same amount of letters....you're not shortening anything. You just make yourself look fucking stupid because you can't use the English language properly. Another peeve is why do people add y's in places that i's should be? Take the word "lyke". Now i'm confused on why the i isn't there. I'm typing it on the keyboard and if your fingers are placed on the correct keys, i believe the "like" is easier to spell than "lyke". Because you have to reach all the way over for the fucking y. So why are you spelling it like that? It's definitely not for convienience.
I blame a lot of it on the "rap community" today. i'm sorry, i don't want all my education to go to waste because some fucking uneducated asshole decided to come in and ruin the English language by making up whole new ghetto words and phrases about a black woman's ass or whatever random stupid shit they decide to rap about. I understand that there is new "slang" coming in every day but i know it doesn't change the spelling of "like" to "lyke". come on now.
And i'm not disrespecting all rappers. I think there is (or was) some decent rap out there. You know, back in the day when people actually had something more to say then "Nigga what back that ass up yeah yeah yeah!!"
but i'm straying off topic here...
Now maybe i shouldn't be saying anything about people that talk "ghetto". In the long run, it will probably help me out. I will be going for a job and it will be me and a person speaking "ghetto" up for the same position (assuming they bullshitted their way to get to the same level that I am and the interviewer momentarily overlooked their idiocratic way of writing) and the interviewer looks at their resume and is flabbergasted because they can't read that shit and they hire me. So i get the job. And the other person ends up working in burger king with all the other "ghetto" talkers. So if that should ever happen, then thank you.
Now, what is the purpose in writing that way? If there is anybody out there who can give me a good, logical reason why writing that way is the correct way and everything i am saying is wrong, i will swallow my words and maybe take up writing like an ass myself. And i'll even use cute, litte *stars* and ~squiggly~ lines. But i can't think of any use for writing "ghetto". You're not abbreviating or shortening anything, unless of course instead of typing the whole three letters of "the" and you put "da" or some stupid shit like that. You're just being lame.
now onto something else that peeves me.
I am not a mean person. I don't like being an outright bitch. I'm more subtle. And if you have at least half a brain that works, you should know when i don't like you. But apparently, most of the people i don't like do not even have half a brain. They have about one brain cell which is asleep most of the time. I don't want to have to say shit like "You are a fucking stupid cunt and i hate you. Don't ever fucking call me or Im me anymore and if i were to ever see you again in life, i would do everything in my power to make sure you fall on a dirty, rusty knife." I don't want to have to be that blunt. I thought maybe if i don't answer your phone calls and don't call you back even when you leave a minute long voicemail or if i tell you to not bother calling me because i'm not going to answer my phone that people would get the hint. No. they don't get the hint. And if you are one of the people who would assume by me saying "don't bother calling me, i'm not going to answer my phone" simply means that I am just busy and don't have time to answer my phone, leave me a comment or something so i can endlessly make fun of you and end whatever relationship we may have. Also, when i have to resort to saying "You are a fucking stupid cunt and i hate you. Don't fucking call me or IM me and if i were to ever see you again in life, i would do everything in my power to make sure you fall on a dirty, rusty knife" my opinion of you will not change in a few weeks or months. So don't fucking try to get in touch with me thinking that i changed my mind and want to be friends. Because you are just an idiot. I don't want to be your friend. Get the fuck over it.
Anyway, I think that's all for now. I don't take back anything i said. I think i'm right, feel free to try and prove me wrong. If i offended anyone, then that sucks for you. I don't give a shit anymore.
