MSN Subliminally Destroys Grammar

<<< Previous Entry: Get a much better army | This Month's entries | Next Entry: Crimbo >>

If you are currently using MSN Messenger to communicate with your friends/enemies/dead pets, have a scroll back up and look at the first line of every single sentence you have just written. Actually, just look at the first letter of every single sentence you have written. Notice, how absolutely everyone of those sentences does not start with a capital letter. Okay, maybe the occasional sentence that begins with the word "I", but that's all. I have no idea why we don't bother, or why for that matter we don't bother with full stops at the ends of sentences on MSN. Tthe good news, however, is that I can't see how Bill Gates can possibly make any money out of this what-so-ever. Which is always a good sign.

When are you coming home?

Answer to your blog question.... spelling and grammar don't matter when you talk, and in MSN you are really talking to people, so it doesn't matter. Why did you single MSN out, it's the same on all internet chat applications. I think your rants are going downhill...!!

When are you coming back to Swansea?

I thought it was capitals becuase MSN stand for MicroSoft Networks Messanger which if said together doesnt really need the .
You dont write t.c.p./i.p. like that do you, it would be stupid. Stupid

Oh the capitals for MSN are fine, as it is an abbreviation (note, it is not an acronym). Just generally. Y'know. Shoddy Grammar. 733t
