Those who both speak and write English on this site are fighting a losing battle about punctuation, sentence structure and spelling. The people who don't use any of this also don't use a single brain cell before pressing their shutter button. They simply post a load of crappy pictures and announce, "critique me".

When confronted by their obvious lack of education they attack with "too much caffeine" or "you need to chill out". The best way to deal with this lower form of life is to ignore them. Ignore their postings, ignore their comments.

I do indeed wish this forum had the "ignore" feature most forums contain. That way they can "text speak" each other to death.

Bob, your back! Welcome I missed you. People were begining to accuse me of sounding to much like you while you were away. Whew, not I can have some of the heat taken of of me.

Now do you have any great pictures you've taken lately for us?

Hope you enjoyed your little hiatus. Rach

so, because some people choose to do things differently from you means they are a lower life form?
quite a conceited point of view.

sorry for not realizing the world revolved around you and that anybody that didn't agree with you was lacking of education.


I'm glad you recognize greatness when confronted by it. :mrgreen:

I am sorry if this offends but this complaint is the most trivial, meaningless, pathetic (I am desperately trying not to call it stupid and just failed) I have ever heard in my life. I just came home from the doctor after hearing I may have CANCER to find someone complaining about capitalization. of all the ludicrous insignificant, trivial concerns. If this is your biggest problem in life you nneed to be on your knees thanking God for being so blessed. I have complaints to but i save them for the big stuff like, being unemployed for a year and a half, or how my food stamps were cut in half for michelle obamas childhood obesity program. How about the state of the economy, the growing immorality in society, or even the fact that woman say they want nice guys but really want bad boys :evil: :twisted: :roll: If you want to complain, blame public education for doing everything but teaching proper spelling typing and puncuation. in a perfect world everyone would type correctly, use the proper quenns english, and have perfect spelling. But it isn't that perfect world. If it was I would be to busy dating supermodels to notice.

Sinatraman, I'm terribly sorry to hear about your sickness. I wish the best for you.

In response to your post about blaming the educational system, I would like to say that I fear your words fall on deaf ears.

While I am not an english major myself I do try to write and speak correctly and I find myself in the camp that believes it reflects negatively on those who don't. No, I don't hold it against anyone and I don't insult people by correcting them but it is a reflection of them whether they like it or not.

Sinatraman, if I were you I would not worry about the trivial things in life either.Your thoughts and energy will best be spent trying to beat your illness. Maintain a positive attitude. The rest of us could take your advice and give thanks for the fortunes that we do have. Wishing you well. J. K. Files

Ah! Rachel! Now I know what 'kissing cousins' is all about.
Keep it in the family, girl. ;-)
