WHY WHY WHY can’t the yoof a today speak proper English like what I does?

Surely it’s an affectation rather than a lack of education?

    lol – joo are teh suxor, lrn2speak.

    Yes, I admit it, I am fluent in all kinds of rediculous online speak. It’s hideous, why can’t people just use the Queens English instead of some mangled pidgeon language.

    I think it’s three things: a lack of education, the pressure to be ’street’, and also the oft-terrible influence of the media – particularly, the lyrics of many charts hits now. I’m over-simplifying, of course, but I think that those are the three most prevalent factors.
