I do too. It's awesome.
But I'm not too shocked by people admitting that they don't read. I used to be, but I've come to realize that most people nowadays CAN'T read. Yes, they can see the words on a page, but they don't really take it in and process everything in their minds. They have no interest in reading anything except netspeak, gossip magazines, and other stupid mindless bullshit of the like. Two of my sisters actually hate to read. One of them only reads that Twilight book series cause she's obsessed with it. And the more time passes, the more I see it: most people just don't like to read.
You and I are a rare breed these days, Masked. People who actually like to read real words, and who are able to write words out instead of saying "OMG ur so kewl! ttyl ppls! I g2g" and other retarded-a** bullshit like that on a consistent basis.
In just a decade or so, or possibly just a few generations from now, I'm predicting that the the day will come when the world will be overrun by unintelligent, illiterate, ape-brained morons who can't even spell the word "definitely". Oh, yes, that day is coming. I will weep for us on that day, my friend.
And you can quote me on that, cause I'm, as today's society would say "ttly srs". Haha...I made a funny...>.>

I have trouble understanding people when they type those, for lack of a better word, abbreviations. That's why I tend to type in complete sentences.

I miss literacy. Where did it go? crying But yes, apparently some Universities are now accepting net speak in papers. <******** Universities. What the ******** can't deny to occasionally using simple net speak, the shame of it all)

We ALL use it nowadays. It's just a modern thing. Even I say things like "lol" and "brb" from time to time. It's just the people who use it CONSTANTLY, like EVERY OTHER WORD, who irritate the s**t out of me.

Also, Star, periods were invented for a reason. Just thought you should know. sweatdrop

no they wernt they were created because some pis*ed off teacher didnt have anything else to teach so they made it so that they could keep kids from leaving because many people get failed because of a missplaced or missing period its a big scam and i will never fall for it

Periods were made so you would stop using run on sentences.

Periods were made so people could actually understand what the ******** you're saying.

That too. Bad writing hurts the soul.

Now, my question is this. How do people who obviously don't grasp the rules of the language get passed into high school?
