Do you have any bad habits while chatting? Obviously none of us replace 'you' with 'u', but do you sometimes write " 'cause " as 'cuz', or maybe do you write 'dunno', 'gonna', 'wanna' 'prolly'? I write those all the time. redface I'm trying to get out of the 'cuz' habit though. o.o! Some of those are from your dialect, I assume, but still... They aren't good habits. Do you all have any?




(Hah! I laugh at any of you who click the last option! You are not perfect, for that response contains a FRAGMENT! :0!! HAH!)

"Cuz," "dunno", and "wanna" are all used by me. Plus I can never spell "receive" right unless I concentrate (and that goes for handwriting, too).

I'll do the 'gonna', 'wanna', and 'dunno' when writing a character's dialect or 'speaking' casually. Outside of that, though, I don't.

I type 'gonna' and 'wanna' all the time, also I use 'oki' a lot too. I'm trying to get out of the habit though. sweatdrop

As far as I can recall, I don't use anything like 'prolly' or 'cuz', but I almost always shorten my words somewhat, using things like " 'cause", " 'im ", "gonna", "wanna", and things like that. But I don't see how they are bad habits...

I use "dunno" when I'm being cute. <.< Or "dun" for "don't," but as stated, that's a cute thing.

I use "wanna," "gonna," "dunno," and "'cause." Maybe a few others, like "mebbe." But sersiously. I use those -mostly- when I'm being cute. <.< A few of them I use regularly because they're part of the usual conversation where I live.

I constantly use "gonna," "wanna," "cuz," and I have no intentions of changing heart It's just easier that way, isn't it? eek

Is that to say that the panda is painting penguin pictures, or painting the actual penguins themselves?

I use "gonna" and "wanna" occasionally, and I use "'cause" all the time, but rarely "cuz".

I use "cause", "wanna", "gonna", "dunno" ALL the time. Also if I'm chatting, abbreviations like "brb" or "btw". 3nodding I don't consider them bad habits, though.

I think I always use either because or 'cause, never cuz, but I do use dunno, wanna, gonna... In a way, they're words, too. I would never use them in an essay for school or something, but anyone can understand them and you still look literate -_-
