is it me, or has our generation (me being 18) gotten so consumed by instant messaging that we honestly could not type a coherent essay without 'autocorrect' on mircosoft word? i admit, i sometimse use shorthand in an attempt to save time, but many people i know write entire sentences without using a single actual word. it's disgusting. a pet peeve of mine is when people write your when they mean you're. i cannot STAND that. the worst part of it is, they do not know they're making a mistake. it drives me crazy.

your thoughts?
A personal hatred of mine is the acronyme LOL.
GRRR!


Fear is your only god.
