If you consider WIC, welfare, and a public library card privileged, then you're right. I should keep my uppity opinions about shitty grammar to myself.
I learned early on that no one will take the time to listen to you if they have to put in extra effort to figure out what you are trying to say.
Ain't nobody got time for that.
People can make out what they're saying easily enough, that's just bullshit. Library card, welfare, whatever, the education system wasn't devised so that those lucky enough to have one, should abuse it by intellectually abusing others... On second thoughts, maybe it was...
Alison- I'm sorry you feel that way.
My grammar/spelling sucks. I'm from a poor, uneducated, Cajun background. Nobody has ever been mean to me on here about it. Maybe it's just the delivery of the person writing the post???!
Sounds as if poor Ashley had it hard, and that was made worse with the continued presence of worthless dickbags in her life. That fucking sucks.
Don't like what I have to say? I respect that. Go fuck yourself.
When Lazarus is backing you, you've got to re-evaluate.
I love how you instantly think that because some chose to attempt correct grammar and punctuation, they are privileged?
I think you'll find you're very wrong. I'm from shitville and grew up in a low socio-economic climate, on welfare. How you move forth from that, in life, or forum presentation, is up to the individual.
If your Prime Minister came out and said 'Hello and good morning' that would be lovely, if they came out and said 'WZZZZZZURPPPP MA WIGGGASSSSS AND G MORNIN', you'd be a little uneasy about the person running your country, wouldn't you? It's a choice, it's easy to convey your thoughts and opinions in a readable manner, and by not doing it, you are opening YOURSELF up to your point being missed/not taken seriously.
I would probably not of replied if this were on Facebook; I do see a lot of ego grabs on that front, which should be an equal, open place for everyone to talk shit as they please. You yourself said you come here for the *frankedit* INFORMATION, and as such, wouldn't you hope it be easily digested and understood? This IS a place of information, debate and onions; so you'd think the quality would also reflect that.
Just food for thought.
You gotta get readin' b
You're diluting the thread
Hmm worse than grammar nazi's is that one person who feels the need to correct others in a death thread and completely detract from it. Oh but I get it, it's not as if we have a section for this on MDS. FFS
Welcome reet, I seee you've found a way to gain quick acceptance into the forum, it's easy isn't it? Just join in the mob mentality. Congrats! 👏🐑🏆
Welcome Reet! Here's a great example of how to start fights and alienate everyone on this forum who doesn't adhere to some kind of imagined mob but rather is some crusty bitch that likely doesn't get along with anyone whether it be here or IRL because ARGUE at any cost, even with people who agree with you.
I think you meant clique.
and I don't consider people correcting spelling or grammar to be rude, I appreciate it when someone tells me the correct word or how to use it, because words and punctuation are very important things to use correctly when communicating, as one small mistake in either can completely change the meaning of what you are trying to say.
Someone not correcting you to be "polite" is bullshit. There is nothing wrong with telling someone the correct way of doing or saying something. It's like walking around with spinach in your teeth all day, because no one would fucking tell you because they are trying to be "polite", so you spend the day looking like a dumbass... if no one ever tells you the correct way to say/write/use a word, then you are just going to keep walking around looking like a dumbass. I'd rather someone let me know when I'm doing/saying something wrong, so I can do/say things properly, because it's fucking stupid to walk around being wilfully ignorant because you think that someone correcting your spelling or asking you to use punctuation are being fucking oppressive and classist.
That's just me though, I don't stick my head in the stand and leave my arse sticking up in the air like you do, concerned more with accusing people on an internet forum of ganging up on me, rather than actually spending time trying not to be a wilfully ignorant troll.
I second the go fuck yourself from Boston, but also want to add to please make sure that you use something hot, sharp, and dirty when you do so.
