I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

DITTO, I second that and I third that! Is it really that offensive to some? I'm always seeing Profiles inworld where they bitch about proper grammer and spelling.....ugh. When I'm on, its my time to relax, it's normaly from 10-12 at night my time, and i normally have a drink and multitasking with other things...yup...mispellings are gonna happen and most certainly some grammer errors. If I'm REALLY typing fast I may even skip a few letters....lol =P Sorry....I don't understand hang up with it IN this game or even any other IM program...it comes with the territory, right? (looking over my paragraph for mispellings, feeling a bit paranoid now...okay..crosses fingers...SUBMIT REPLY)

crap. i hate being judged by my forum and chat verbage, grammar, puncuation and spelling. cripes, this isn't RL and we aren't getting paid. loosen up and go with the flow. half of us are snockered by the time the workday has ended and we get in here, and i can't see why it's such a big deal.

(including that nasty new one where possessive plurals are now to be written as s's)


Oh that is nasty, and ugly too. Which bunch of interfering busybodys's idea was that? lol

ETA: Damn! busybodys's? busybodies's? bunches of busybodie's? (no that last one is definitely wrong ... um ... busies body's? GRRRR!

/me stomps off to look for beer and grammar guide.

Probably the same people who thought that one space between sentences was an improvement over two (although I do not believe that is, yet, a grammar enforcement). But honestly, the new plural possessive rule is ugly as two ugly things in an ugly pod.
