How about you stop posting random crap and just participate in the myriad of useful discussions already going on. It's evident at this point (to everyone here) that you are trying way to hard now to make up for any past transgressions. If you don't let it die then it won't die, but if you do, it will.

1.) Short hand - it's fine for texting I guess, but I don't want to have decipher what people are saying

This, but more extreme. There is no instance in anything where I feel short hand or text talk is okay when conversing either in person or over technology with anyone. For me, it is rude (you can't take the time to type crap out?) because you don't really care about the conversation and it is lazy because someone using it is so uneducated that they have to do it (Who needs grammar when you have swag, right?).

I also have a big problem with over punctuation. I was at my doc's office yesterday and they had a sign, literally that was like this (In all caps, but I'll take 'em off):

Please turn

Your cell phone

off please..

Thank you!!!!!

I almost flipped out. One, the ellipse was one period too short (instead of one long, like most people use it) and then an unnecessary amount of exclamation points? I wanted to say," You work for a freaking university, there is a writing center not five minutes from here I'm sure they can help you figure your stuff out".

I just make a point to be as professional as possible when conversing orally or through text. For me, it's a general stick of intelligence. And, more often than not, I type the way I speak. So, being from the south, we have y'all and 'em and what not but that is just culture for me.

Haha, yes! Though I will admit I am at fault for over using the ellipse. On occasion I will use more than one exclamation point, not usually more than two, but I'm sure I've done it in the past.

Something else that bothers me with the current facebook era, is the doubling or tripling of letters. For example "omgggg did you see thattt? Like reallyyy?"

There ain't nothin' wrong with a little southern dialect I use "y'all" a good bit. Also I have a tendency to use the apostrophe in place of the "g" often. Like in "nothin'" etc.

I guess I don't have any Internet pet peeves. Not nearly as bad as some anyway. I don't take anything seriously enough in a make beleive world to even think about such things. Reading this thread is a little scary!
I guess my Internet pet peeve would be people that have Internet pet peeves!

1. Giant blocks of unformatted text without punctuation or proper capitalization

2. Texting short hand. Some things are ok like lol, but condensing words into a single letter (like you = u) drives me nuts honestly most phones out there today have full keyboards which really makes texting shorthand just lazy.

3. People who don't read a post that clearly answers their question then ask the same question again directly under the post that answers said question.

I really don't mean to be, but in my head I'm an uber grammar/ spelling nazi. Too/ to, their/ they're/ there, ect. Every time I see words misspelled I like mentally deduct a point from them, I reeeeeeally don't mean to, it just happens lol. I am fully aware I do make mistakes too.

Much worse would be really aggressive/ arrogant/ ignorant people who will not listen to advice even if they asked for it.

[snakesRkewl]

1. Rudeness
2. Grammar nazi's
3. People who refuse to do research on their own before asking questions.

I have abused the ellipsis far too many times. I'll keep that in mind while posting here. I may have used it inappropriately as well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis

Anyways, my online pet peeves:
1) Trolls. It is very annoying especially when you're brand new to something. Example? Of course I'm going to suck in my first game of League of Legends. Yet, I was trolled so hard! :/
2) People on Facebook who have albums of JUST themselves possibly titled "Me!<3333"
3) On Twitter, tweets that count down the number of hours left of work. In other words, "1 down 11 to go!", "2 down 10 to go!", "3 down 9 to go!" ... etc.
