Cheap ass

Today, I took the family to the Rainforest Café. There was no parking and I hate having to pay $12 for valet parking. I parked at Walgreens across the street in the only spot without a "Patrons only, violators will be towed" sign. It was covered by the tree branches. It cost me $225 for the cab and fine. FML

I hate the way you worded your FML, buddy.

THANK YOU!! Finally, someone that I can agree with. It takes five more seconds to write out complete sentences with correct spelling and grammar. Talking in "computer" and "text" talk has turned us into morons and is the reason why so many of you idiots don't even know how to spell half the words you use or how to properly construct sentences. Congratulations, you use "no" to spell "know". This just proves to the world you are a dumb ass.

YDI for going to the Rainforest Cafe. I'd rather starve to death than eat shitty food in a fake jungle run by a faceless corporate conglomeration. Don't you have any class?

Just park 10 steps away and get some excersice? Its never worth the risk mate.

This made no sense. The cafe had valet parking, he said. I'm sure the other parking places were a lot more than ten steps away. And what the hell is a "risk mate"? (Commas are your friends.)

its called the internet, where grammar and spelling doesnt even have to always be correct. so stop telling people to use correct grammar.

Whoa bigguy, dont have to go all Soup Nazi on me. Grammar is only necessary when the message is drastically changed by adding something. Like "******* a dude" vs. "******* A--, Dude". Past that, they become trivial. If you can understand the message, its all that counts. And the term "10 steps away" was not a literal term, but meant the extra walk. Now please don't go all "Im a ******* smartass nerd who thinks he's better than all the kids on the intrawebs" Because you are not. Maybe I don't have as good English as you do, but English is a third to me, behind Hindi and Chinese. And maybe learning acceptance of others mistakes will be something you'll learn to do, because believe me, you'll make some mistakes to, and if you help others with theirs, people don't forget, and they'll be there for you. “Other people may be there to help us, teach us, guide us along our path, but the lesson to be learned is always ours.”

this is true. ever heard of text talk? u r a very big dumbo. Please note I did not spell out you and are. Instead I used a shorter version that means you and are. This would not be correct grammar. Plus who uses correct grammar on the comp anyway? By comp I mean computer for those of u who dont no what a comp is abbreviated for. Please note that I also didn't spell out know. This is another reason why I just adore text talk!

****. TEXT. *******. TALK. I cannot stand people who use text talk. JUST TYPE OUT ALL YOUR ******* WORDS YOU LAZY ASS ******* PRICKS.

Just use correct grammar and stop being a dumb ass, dumb ass!

There is no reason to spell out full words unless they take away from the message upon doing so. If you can get your meaning across if fewer letters, its good. Brevity of thought is hard to find already.

I concur, we should all try to spell out our words correctly. Unless, of course, you are typing under character constraints. I n those cases, text talk is excusable.

We need to moderate between the two. Abbreviating some things are okay, but don't go overboard. Instead of "r u ****** srious? i h8 grmmer nazis they thnk they no evryting". , say "are u ******* serious? i hate grammar nazis! They think they no everything."

No. **** you. Writing "no" instead of "know" and "u" instead of "you" is just retarded. It was probably the same for "probably" and nowadays no one knows that it's actually not spelled "prolly". English isn't even my first language and it still goes on my nerves. There are some words that can be abbreviated, but you should notice you're doing something wrong if you only save two letters with it.

Can't we all just get along? Here, I have my guitar. Let's sing Kumbaya.

Usually it's way more expensive to get your car out of tow, on average the minimum is $300, so stop whining.

Oh, yeah, cuz it's only 225. Not like that's gonna buy you anything.

Oh, luuk1708, you are my fire, the one desireeee. Will you believe me when I say, "I want it that way"? ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

That's what happens if you don't obey the rules.

I think people should stop doing that "I agree with [future post]" thing.

Lol. Yep. And I have no life because I patiently waited so I could be #11 and say that. xD

Clever. Naive me, I thought it was coincidence... :P

ah, I had never noticed they agreed with the future, I usually don't pay attention to this kind of comments. Though it's kinda fun ^^ even more so that you waited so that he had to agree with stopping ^^
