My pet-peeve...

Original post by BMD'sPeanut

I hate when people type y-o-u-r when trying to explain something about or to a person...

It's Y-O-U-'-R-E
and yes, I am shouting.

It may be YOUR short hand but to the rest of the english speaking world..it looks like poor grammar...

When i type... i make typos silly slips of the key...i don't purposely change words to suit me...That kind of weird to me...

This is NOT necessary and just a childish comment
She is telling you the truth!

And this thread was started by someone who finds this error annoying. If you are going to take it soooo personally, maybe you should avoid this one!

cant understand how that can bother someone so much !!!!

just like CAPS are for yelling
YOUR- is short hand for YOU'RE




That's great...

YOUR is not short hand for YOU'RE

You're is an abbreviated form of you are.
As in you're invited, you are invited. (why an apostrophe is considered shorter or faster than another letter and a space I don't really know)

Your is used with reference to something that belongs to you.
As in your invitation.

And grammar, is spelled with 'ar' not 'er'

'Blah blah' is a colloquialism. The laws of grammar still apply when it's used in a sentence.

'U' instead of 'you', '4' instead of 'for' and '2' instead of 'to' or 'too' are perfectly legitimate (and widely) accepted shorhand versions used in chatrooms and on message boards. Terms like LOL, or PIMP are also widey used and accepted by even the most traditional grammarians. Typos and mispunctuations are mistakes everyone makes (especially when typing quickly). Intentional poor grammar is not the same thing at all.

Look i don't need to read every friggin thread on these boards to try to find some hidden meaning....
Bmd'speanut finds this to be annoying TO HER!!!!!
MAYBE YOU'RE (LOLOLOL) A LITTLE PARANOID OR JUST A LITTLE EMBARRASSED BY YOUR LACK KNOWLEDGE IN PROPER GRAMMAR....

IT IS SPELLED GRAMMAR, BY THE WAY..
AND...since you are new to this board..people say WHATEVER they want...throw their 2 cents in WHENEVER they want..
IF YOU HAVE PROBLEM WITH THAT....GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!

Since YOU'RE ( ) the ONLY one who has an issue!
