I was on the internet the other day and I saw some well funny things. The first funny thing I saw was that someone had deliberately put "intarweb" instead of "world wide web" or "internet". But it was deliberate, like they'd actually chosen to do it!
Then I saw someone trying to make a point, and to emphasise it they added a load of exclamation marks, some of which had been turned into ones in order to make it look like they'd frenziedly typed it with cack-hands. But this was deliberate too! Boy, was I bowled over.
The last thing I saw was in an argument. In an attempt to be dismissive, someone had written "Kthxbye", as if they didn't even have time to type out what they actually meant to say, let alone consider what the other person had to say. Again, it was as if they'd typed something stupidly - but that's not what they meant. It was actually DELIBERATE!
Honestly, the internet has given rise to such utterly original and creative use of language. Someone should give these people jobs writing sitcoms for the BBC.
