I must say I was quite suprised this morning when I started reading my
FML.  I read the post made by Roger and thought to myself, "how can you
possibly tell a persons age from the way they type?"  I personally took
great offense to the comment that it is "young people" who make this
intentional typos.  I am still considered by many as "young." BTW, I'm
26.  In today's society most everything we do has been shortened in some
shape or form to be quick and easy.  This includes the english language.
While I unfortunately did not graduate from College (yet) I can honestly
say that I am well educated.  There are times when I may not capitilize
all my I's in an email, but again we live in a world of convience.  If a
capital or lower case letter makes something easier to read then I must
have missed that class along the way.  I'm sorry but I needed to vent.  I
am just tired of "young people" always getting blamed for things.  Maybe
it's the "older people" who need to loosen up.  This is in no way meant
to offend anyone or put anyone on the defensive!!  And if it does offend
just think about this~~~~at least I had the guts to stand up for myself
and not post anon!!!
 
Jenn, Whiskers, Sweet Pea, Damien, and Daddy too!!
 
Hey Roger, here's another thought for ya too!!  Does the internet lingo
bother you as well?  Just wondering!  LMAO
