Did anybody else see the picture of the Army (I think it was Army, sorry if it's not) guys holding the sign that read "Halp us jon cary, we're stuk hear in irak" (or something to that effect)? Seriously, I feel like I am trying to read that sign every time I come on to Yahoo Answers. I know some people are in a hurry and some people are learning English and may not be able to put whole phrases together, but for the other 96% of you out there, why doesn't anyone spell anything correctly anymore? There's even a spell checker right on the post page! I understand the perks of the slang crap (Y U B Hatin any 1) but seriously. Did everyone in here fail English? I know I am an old fart (23) who didn't get into the whole use-one-letter-to-abbreviate-a-three-letter-word movement, but still, come on.
