I hate text speak! Call me lazy or ignorant but I cannot read something that does not contain vowels or punctuation marks.

Please, please, please let's put a stop to this. Text speak IS lazy and downright ignorant. There are people on this site who have English as a second langauge and they have the grace and intelligence to try and write it to the best of their abilities. Why can't we give them and each other the common courtesy of returning the favour?

If anyone else is in favour of getting rid of "txt spk" then please click the little star in the question box.

I am a carer for my disabled step daughter,and have my disabled son every school holiday, I am 38 years old and have work all my life up until 2 years ago,my wife is doing a degree, so maybe we will own our house one day,I have had my own home before and give it over to my ex-wife to provide a roof for my disabled son, not long after the house prices went through the roof and have never been able to get on the ladder since,why do i get the feeling that the neighbours who own there own houses, look down on us because we rent and i do not go to work.

Everyday we come to know about the crimes done by the youths.
The gang-wars in the temple of Saraswati(colleges),daylight rapes, murder and abusive language, above all the crime of leaving their parents alone.........Does not it show that the morale values are decreasing and today’s young generation is highly responsible for it.

Now the Counter part:

The young generation has much more burden than the older generation, they have much more competition than before, they have limitless ambitions n dreams to fulfill and in this too fast too furious race somthing will definitely lack behind. After-all if you wish to have some-thing then you have to put something forward (sacrifices).

So what do you think..........plz be fair......

A fleeing Taliban, desperate for water, was plodding through the Afghanistan desert when he saw something far off in the distance. Hoping to find water, he walked toward the object, only to find a little old Jewish man sitting at a card table with neckties laid out on it. The Arab said, "My thirst is killing me. Please...do you have any water?"

The Jew replied, "I have no water. Would you like to buy a tie? They are only $150. This one goes very nicely with your robes."

The Arab shouted, "Idiot! I do not need your overpriced tie. I need water!"

"OK," said the old Jew, "It does not matter that you do not want to buy a tie. I will show you that you have not offended me. If you walk over that hill to the east for about four miles, you will find a lovely restaurant. Go! Walk that way! The restaurant has all the water you need!"

The Arab staggered away toward the hill and disappeared. Eight hours later the Arab came crawling back to the Jewish man's table. The Jew said, "I told you, the restaurant with the water is about four miles over that hill. Could you not find it?"

"I found it," rasped the Arab. "But your brother wouldn't let me in without a tie!"

Is that how history has always been? The mass of people shout down the few people who use their brains. And they are forced to put up with people who are being owned and controlled by very crafty criminal people?

By the way , what age group are most people on this forum?

my girlfriend is black british and i feel there is not much diffrence between us , but she is a diffrent race and put into a catorgary with jamacians, because her grandma and grandad came here in the 60's

our son is called "mixed race" but i dont want him to think he is mixed , he is just a human and lots of our famaly heritage lies abroard but we are very british

she has much more in comman with me than a yardie or an african

i think british is more of a race than "black" but i dont know , am i the same "race" as a russian ?

your race is part of your identity
i think we are all the same race it just depends on where we are from as to what identity we have

ok ok..school isnt everything.
but let's say the honors yale grad was brilliant in school and very articulate... came from a middle class background and had to achieve everything on her own. AND she is female....

while the C average alumnus, a man was rich all his life, got everything from his daddy and still needs help w/ speaking.

OK we live in a house of 5, shared utensils and cutlery etc etc. Now none of the stuff actually matches, but there are of course some good utensils and some crappy ones.

Duncan has adopted this particular bowl as his own (all stuff came with house) for his morning porridge and lunch time soup. It's very nice, plain white, quite deep but small, and he is very attached to it. We all accept it, although secretly wish the bowl was ours.

Now Gayle has stolen the bowl and is eating her cereal out of it at the kitchen table, with a steely glint in her eye. She shows no signs of caring about Duncan's moral which we all think is wrong.

Please can all you good people out there voice your opinion by answering Duncan or Gayle, and thus we can decide who the bowl's rightful adopted parent is.

Many thanks.

ABBÉ Pierre, an outspoken Roman Catholic priest who renounced wealth to became one of the most revered figures in France for his tireless campaigning for the homeless and the poverty-stricken, died yesterday at the age of 94.

He was refferred to as the 'Conscience of France', the 'Paupers' Pope' and well-known throughout the world. Yet not a word in Yahoo News? Shame, innit? I suppose it isn't something that 'sells' well enough...
