"lol" is the most awful thing ever put to computer monitor. Dreadful.

[Vivienne]

why is that, then?

[MK Chris]

Because it's a ridiculous abbreviation. Text speak in general is awful, but that is worse than most of it.

[Sunny So Cal]

Yeah but when someone last used it and Footsy made the leprosy comment about "lmao", that was funny.

I don't know about "favourite" film -- I have lots. Star Wars trilogy. The Indian Jones trilogy. Ghostbusters 1. Jaws 1. Probably a lot of the Christmas movies because it was a treat once a year. Disney Winnie the Pooh ones were cute. My Fair Lady. The Sound of Music. The King & I. An Affair to Remember or anything with Cary Grant in it. The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. Old Abbott & Costello movies.

And, no, I'm not that old. All of these movies were old when I was little so don't start

Favourite film from childhood? Hmm. Probably Jungle Book. Classic.

[Vivienne]

[catherine]

I've been at college. I can't sit in front of a computer all day like i did before changing courses.

[kendra k]

[S4B]

I thought it was S4B more than Cat. And like it or lump it, it has been banned, officially - or as officially as anything gets done around here.

Nope - twas definitly Cat.

S4B is cool with it.

I thought it was Topher!!!! I just hate text speak and bad grammar in general!

Gah.

At least Cat got the joke.

[S4B]

I'm ill! Explain it to me???

[catherine]

He was taking the piss because i don't care about grammar

[MK Chris]

I got the joke. I chose to let young Catherine make her comeback.

But then I didn't know if she would get it because she doesn't know the difference between a lake and a river.

[catherine]

oh for fecks sakeeeeeeeeeeee i know the difference i just wouldn't know the difference if i was looking at one.

I live in a country that loves bad gramma! and I love it too! it's not what you say and how you say it, but it's the person who says it and how they mean it! I love being in a country with bad gramma and sincere people rather than being in one with good gramma and insincere people really means a lot to me .............so at the end of the day it's not judging a book by its cover...........but having a good read and getting the full meaning of the subject What gives a person a right to judge some one else because of their use of words? it's the meaning behind them that counts! mmmm it reminds me of a saying! "There by the grace of God go I!" lol and any person without sin cast the first stone!

by the way my fav childhood film was Breakfast at Tiffany's..........loved the song Moonriver and was always singing it from an early age !!!! So good or bad gramma I don't give a damn its the person thats important not always the education and god forbid I would ever think myself too holier than thou !

[ladbroke]

I think I'll probably be on my own with this one, but I remember my granparents taking me to the cinema to see 'Boys in Blue' starring Cannon and Ball!! Some big name stars in it though.

Other than that it was probably Short Circuit, which my 5 year old son now loves!

Yes you can be a nice person with little knowledge of spelling or grammar, but sometimes people come across as not having even made an effort, which is annoying.

Also, wrong as it may be, thick people are annoying. Particularly on a forum.

[Yudster]

It's lazy. I don't like laziness.

[S4B]

I don't like laziness either, thick people can be annoying but can also be very funny!

[Andy B]

I'm especially lazy. See it even says so on my sig.

[Sunny So Cal]

It's your disclaimer

Tis the season for sparkly baubles!
