A Word I Hate.

I might not be the first to say this. Social Media has made a lot of people stupid.
If you did not have A.D.D. before texting and twitter options with only a 140 characters, society has allowed you to develop A.D.D.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not bashing anyone who does have A.D.H.D. Some of the most successful people contribute their success to the fact they have it. They've learned to embrace this and work to their own benefit. It's the remaining people who have just become lazy with their vocabulary.

Sure text messages can be the exception to the rule, but ONLY when you're text messaging, or if short hand of sorts happens to be in your job description. But professional emails, and conversations in person, hell no!  I might just slap you if you were to actually say O.M.G. OR LOL instead of just laughing or saying the words Oh My Gawd, and if you're over the age of 12, you deserved to be punched.

On to the a word I've discovered I hate. I hate it with all my being!
The word actually makes me want to kick puppies. Sort of. Okay, not really, but you get my point.

Chilax (ing), (ed). - What the fuck is that?
Is that the new way to express you're entirely too lazy to actually choose one word or the other to describe how you feel? 

Does the dictionary still exist, in print? Yes I believe it does.
Does it exist online too? Yes it does.
Does Google correct words and ask you if you meant _ _ _ _ _ when you miss spell something? Yes it does.
Do all computers come with a spell check and grammar option? Why yes they do!

So please explain to me why people insist on using the following incorrectly?
  They're, Their, There, Where, Were, We're, Know, No. To, Too, Two.

-Side note:
Ever notice that most spell checks do not recognize Canadian spellings?

With our OU's in words. Colour, Favourite, etc. or the use of RE & ER. Centre, or Center?
Our American Neighbours drop the U. It's not wrong per se, as a whole country spells words without, but what about the Northern Half of North America and UK that does utilize the U in words as we're British Commonwealth? Huh? Food for thought.
Don't get me started on the About or Aboot? Do we really say it with it sounding like "aboot"?
No Doubt About it. ;P

Now, I'm not the grammar police at all. My blog can contest to that in itself. Shit, grammatical errors have been brought to my attention.  However, the basic knowledge of spelling should at least be correct.
Yes, yes, there is human error, but just plain stupidity or laziness is my complaint.

Hi gurl, Wasup?
Hows you? What doin?
Seriously?

When did it become okay for anyone not in grade school to continue to speak like that?
Do people think it's cute? There is a time and place for this kind of slack and sloppiness in communication.

Hey wiener it is not okay: When you're talking to the receptionist while waiting for an interview, at work(excluding breaks and lunch), talking to any co-workers on work topics, your parents.  Oh That's a good one! Would you talk to your parents this way?
(I know I just made bad grammar sound like it's all vulgar). Chances are not. Why?
Cos your parent's would most likely knock you into next week for dumbing yourself down.

I think that's what it boils right down too.
Why would you deliberately dumb yourself down to look stupid when you're not?

What words, new words, lack of words drive you nutty?.......GO!
