Articulation Demonstration
Frako, you are a good lil piggy, sweatheart! "wee wee".
Seriously, some of us are purists to varying degrees on what a proper message should be presented as.
Translation: Small i's and misspelled words irritate the frake out of us!
Truth be told, many folks have bad forum habits. Some of us can't help it. I try and read between the lines and see what someone is actually saying.

Phats 2 cents
hooah212002, I think that you don't like Buz. Should we not try and keep our feelings to ourselves in debates, or do you think that we should "be real" about how we feel towards one another?

Intent of the author
FYI Frako I dont mind your misuse of the "proper" language at all.
You are a likable poster with a sense of humor. You know that you make mistakes and you don't do them intentionally.
Your intentions are noble.
hooah212002, on the other hand ( )
seems to cuss almost on purpose, as a point of identification of individuality and pride.
I dont care whether I am an American native son. I have every right to express myself as smartly or dumbly as I so choose!
(Oh wait, I am being more of an ass than you were!) Sorry, people.
