Ha! I love how how you categorized your question under "special education" :). Funny.

either a) my theory that Americans really are getting more stupid by the minute,   or b) people are on it so much and type so fast that they try to shorten up what they say by using self-invented shorthand for the computer. It is one of my personal pet peeves, not so much typing, but people who cannot seem to be able to speak English anymore. Do you know they are actually considering teaching ebonics in American high schools?! I say make the kids master English first.

LOL! I hear you. It is very annoying. And you're right, those people who pick at spelling mistakes are extremely annoying. No one's perfect.\nHave a nice day!

See if you can unscramble these words. You can read words with all the letters mixed up except for the first and last. Got an email like this not long ago.

lol no y wuld ne1 do tat?//??!?\n\nHaha, just kidding. It's really sad that people can't take the time to make sure they're using proper spelling and grammar, and it makes them look terribly unintelligent.

It's usually because CAPS LOCK is on.\n-MM

This is a problem with how your keyboard is set up - you will need to check Control Panel/Regional Settings.\n\nOn a UK keyboard, the quotes is above the 2 key, but on a US keyboard the @ is above the 2.

If you look at the letters on the corresponding keys, it's "sexy".  Why they couldn't just spell it out is beyond me.  That goes back to the pager days...

It sounds like you accidentally turned on "overtype" in your word processing software.  Did you notice that if you place the cursor in the middle of a word and start typing, it types over the characters in front of it, whereas before it push the characters to the right?  When you see this, it means you hit the "Insert" key on the keyboard.  Hit it again to switch it back.

I agree. Keystroke errors and minor misspellings are common place in this the 21st century. How do they feel about text messages with there obvious abbreviations and misspelled words?

its dose the same thing to me! try typing a little bit slower.thats what i do. somtimes your fingers are faster than the computers mind. or you could just type less.

Yes, as a teen myself I have noticed that people don't bother to spell correctly very much anymore. People are just trying to hit as few keys as possible but still get their message across. I do not see why it is so painful to type out the entire word or to retype a misspelled word. Even on yahoo answers, the least used tool is the spell check. I just do not understand why people use slang and abbreviations to save just a few keystrokes.

Someone may have messed with your keyboard definitions.

Its mostly kids that do it. I only saw younglings doing that stuff. I guess they think its something cool to do. \n\nI agree with you, its pretty annoying. Normally the kids see other people typing that way and get annoyed themselves, so they stop.

i get them too! it's annoying! you try to filter the subject, and they change some letters around. Like "i" is "1" or "a" is "@". Crazy stuff! I done a pretty good job of delivering most of the spam mail into trash using filters. I just look for common words in each subject like free or complimentary.
