This has to be stopped!

Ok, this madness and plague should end tonight! Hehehe.. (If girls can write "B_tch Mode On" then I'll use "Jerk Mode On") =P

Today I just browsing and browsing like usual. Then I stumbled into some postings and some things pissed me off. Then this reminds me of Mijung's entry a month or two ago. She told me about this thing (habit I assume) that has been infected so many souls (wtf?) =P

Not only about how they pronounce words or form a sentence but the writing style that really hurts me.

Well, perhaps the writer's intention was to make their writing to be looked more cute or cool. Or maybe the 'Shift' button on their keyboard is broken hehehe.. But to be honest, it's just stupidity and silly. Some of you might already or always or perhaps done it sometimes. It is when they start to type LiKe tHiS fOr tHe WhOlE pAgE. Now, I'm sorry if this might offend someone, but it is annoying. Typing in that style won't show any cuteness (if there's such a word) about ourselves. In my very humble opinion, it's just simply a foul. If that's how they write their nicknames for chat programs such mIRC or username in a forum or even just to type a line of signature, that's ok. But if they do it for the whole page or article, there's not a right thing.

I don't know whether I've read articles that I shouldn't have read which talks about a proper writing skill OR they (those cute writers) live in the different world. What is wrong by writing in normal form? FYI: even between 'normal' font types such as Times New Roman and Sans-Serif will affect the speed and comfortness of the reader. I never enjoy reading something when someone writes it LiKE ThIs. So by doing it, the writer just make or try to make the readers feel uncomfortable or tired.

You might say that I'm just a picky and nosy sob. It's ok then. I just want everyone knows that in my opinion:

1. It's not cute to type like and it won't affect how people will treat you. But indeed your typing will make them feel different or I might say 'annoyed' about your writing. Even sometimes they don't feel it
2. Silly & immature
   
3. Will in fact, create a boredom from the readers
4. Might make the readers think the writer is not or never serious about what they write
5. Lack of respect to the readers, as in a way, it can be considered as 'intended' act by the writer to build discomfort to the readers

I've asked some of those 'cute' writers or people (and yes, they are all females) about this. The funny thing, some of them told that it's already been a habit. That they do it 'uncontrollably'. I was like "Really??????" Hehehehe... Well, if there's any of you type like that and give the same answer, then why don't you type your report, project or assignment in the same manner? =P

We all know, that when comes to assignment, uni or school projects and reports, suddenly everyone starts to type as professional as they can!

So, if you are one of those 'cute' writers, please stop now. Isn't will be better if your typing will look neat and professional, regarding the topics you want to discuss. And no, I'm not calling myself a 'professional' writer. I do make some mistakes or inappropriate grammar forms occasionally (as a matter of fact, you might already find some in this posting). But I always try to correct them, edit and use the proper words or forms so anyone who reads my blog will feel as comfortable as it can be.
