The only thing I hate is grammar, as long as you're not going into writing (or teaching english, obviously)and it sounds logical most people won't care.

I don't care for english much but my conscience doesn't let me take a break from still trying to do my best work.



meh, i get by on the close reading and textual analysis parts, i try to scrape a few marks from the essay and personal study but to be honest, I would of failed higher if i carried it on.

All I can say is that T9 is god awful and so is this messed up "text talk". Write normal, sound intelligent.

It does to me, it's a lot faster to text with it. I can't do it the regular way, I hit the buttons too many times or not enough times and it really ticks me off.

You don't need a phone to see text type, just log onto facebook.

Ah, like those with the full touch keyboards and whatnot? Yeah, I had one. Hated typing on it. I do like my buttons.

Generally speaking text type doesn't bother me when texting, now when typing in a forum it does. We aren't held to a certain amount of characters so I don't understand the need for it here. As far as the spelling is concerned, well I suck at spelling, always have, but that is why I love spell check.

...You do realize it's still using that same keyboard?

Therefore saying what you did doesn't make a difference, it's not relevant to my comment.
