How is it a foreigner? Most people who move to america don't know "kewl"... The "ites" thing must be "it's" , see, you take out the "e" and use the accent as a...oh, god, i forgot the word...I need some sleep...no more all-nighters for me...

I guess that person thought that they were so damn funny that they had to add an interjection ("lmao") for every few words. It's painful to read. I don't give a rat's a** if she is a foreigner. I've met foreigners that have perfect typing and speech skills. This is what you call laziness.

Here's an example of my own:

"why si been gay so wrong? just today i saw some kids making fun of someone just because his gay. so what if he is? is it wrong to like other guys? while i am not gay my self i dont think been gays its wrong. so what do u think about this? is it that i am wrong thinking this or are they wrong thinking like that?"

This is a meaningful post and I am in now way making fun of the person who wrote this. It's just awful. I am still not sure what that first sentence is supposed to be saying.

It's the curse of Windows XP if you've got your system set to Canadian. The keyboard will randomly switch to make your punctuation-type keys into different accent types to conform with the French side of things. It took me a long, long time to figure out why my parents' computer was doing it to me.

The only ways to get it to stop when it begins are to quit the program that's in use and restart it, or switch the computer over to United States. If the person that did that post was unaware of the United States thing, he/she may have just chosen not to close the program (or perhaps didn't even notice, if it happens too often). Having the accent within "it's" was actually an attempt at proper grammar.

the first sentence is "why is being gay so wrong?" I sometime press s before I, though I always correct it!

I know people who can read fairly well and come to school talking like: "LOL. OMG. TODAY, MUH DAD ALMOST RAN OVER A CAT. LMAO. ANYWAYS, CLASS IS STARTING, GTG." I mean literally.

It kills me inside.

My friends did that to me for a while, until I threatened them with physical violence. The txt tlk in the real world stopped pretty damn quick after that. twisted But then again, I am the reason people commit suicide.

As to the original post... I hate the word "kewl". Is that like the retard's mispronunciation of "cool" or something? I have never in my life said, "Oh, that's pretty kewl, y'know? Oh, my bad, I meant 'cool'. Slip of the tongue, yes?" *bangs head on desk*
