How to tell someone...


Question Posted Wednesday November 24 2004, 11:12 pm

Well, I have a friend who visits an advice site (the name slips my mind) where most everyone posts idiotic relationship questions riddled with bad spelling, punctuation, and grammer, pretty much in that order. My question is this, how do I tell my friend that he is a moron? And how can I make him stop asking stupid questions? And how can I get him to stop using things like "u" for you, or "r" for are?

Thanks for the help.

Well... good luck first of all... the internet is just that, being able to get away from any correct grammar. It is possible though to make one stop using u for you and r for are. Well, the way I see it is that if he does that in real life then try to stop him because it really doesn't matter if you do it on AIM or something..

Ha. This is my kind of question. I tend to agree with you. However, I would just tell him right to his face to grab a dictionary or just not be so damned lazy. Everytime you see one of his stupid questions....Hit him. I would.

Hope I helped!

tell him he's being an idiot and needs to learn that spelling, punctuation, and grammar are fairly important to the normal person. also... please tell him that other than "I" and "a" letters aren't words, nor should they be treated as such.

seriously though, i wouldn't worry excessively over it, it's not too big of a deal. unless his resume looks like that, let it go.

Well there is no way you can stop him from doing this .. but you can talk 2 him. But sometimes you just gotta be a friend and let him do what he feels like doing. You cant control his every move. And just because you want him 2 stop using "u" for you and "r" for are, that doesnt mean he should. This is how he is, let him be dont try to change him into what you want him 2 be.
