It seems like this is the generation that puts prepositions,pronouns and intransitive verbs where they dont belong and have their own abbreviated text language. By the year 2050 are we really going to be advanced? I suppose we could be as long as we have sharp people who can understand the bastardization of our language and decode it.

I would hope that its all for the sake of sarcasm. Also, your right, there's no telling whose being serial.

I hate misspelled words more than grammatical errors. Like not knowing the difference between mute and moot.
