It does not make me feel old...It makes me wonder why people feel the need to "dumb down" on the internet. For crying out loud people.

It's pure laziness... For example>>> You would type or say "hello darling what would you like to do when we finish work this afternoon?" Whereas a young person would type or say "Ay darl wat ya wana do wen im done 4 da day?" They just couldnt be bothered using proper english... You are not old at all... Youth today are just becoming more lazy thanks to all the gadgets around now... Personally i think youth are not getting proper education at school anymore either...

Girlfriend, I hear what you are saying. I think it's the youngsters being lazy, instead of saying "with" and "that" I personally think they sound less educated talking like that.

They teach reading through phonics these days. Spelling has become an anomaly.

Hear you on feeling old....especially when I go to the music store, and find my favorite albums on sale....arrrgh!

It's called 'being too lazy to enunciate'.
