    For a bonus 10,000 Piggy Points, today's quiz is "Spot the Punctuation"... :D:D

    isnt a lot of this sort of post related to phone texting, where you cant understand a word as everything is abreviated or phonetic? I dont suppose it is intentionally to annoy people. Or maybe its genuine spelling errors which we should not criticise. Not everyone is a walking dictionary.

    Everyone is always so lacking in patience these days.

    Well said. I work in administration and have to type up letters occasionally. When I have to, I can use the correct punctuation and spelling but on here I feel more relaxed and do tend to slip into the "text type spelling" and no abbrieviations, but hey don't we all from time to time? Chill out people!

    Is that lacking in patience over the time it takes to read all that incomprehensible txt spk, or lacking in patience to bother taking the time to write words out in full with some kind of attempt at punctuation? ;)

    Let's please stop the bickering before it gets going again. Reading through 4 pages of that is worse than trying to decifer someone's post, whom, may or may not have spelling and/or learning difficulties etc. Let's all just rise above it please?

    Anyhoo, back to droopsnout and those tights...........
