The most wonderful, least bitter person you'll ever meet...

Good old Bebo...

I've always been a bit "skeptical" of Bebo. Like a very poor man's version of Myspace, and thats saying something. Still, I've got too much time on my hands, so I have registered an account there. Needless to say, it was a bit of a rofl, and I cant help but notice how many people shunned syntax , capitalisation and symantics. I've rummaged through a few profiles to give you the idea:

"hey gorgeous, u sur its al ok 2 stay at urs on fri? n also, wt u doin sat eve? its ma m8s bday meal, n as ur ma luva, ur welcome 2 come! so let me no wot ur doin hun, hope uve had a gd day! oxoxoxo"

"
rite thn u can have ur litle 22 i will have my m82a1 barret 50 cal"

"
easy boi what u been up to not seen u in a while found ur page on some buff birds one what goin on there. seen phillip lately or not haha. write bk u wanker."

Shakespeare this aint, and its been pretty hilarious looking at the profiles, and what I've quoted above pretty much applies itself to every person. Even the people I would consider of high academic ability seem to have theirs in a non-standard English way. Its not that I hate these people, and in fact a lot of them I really like, but this whole kind of "Me too" language really is pissing me off.

Maybe its just me being bitter, but really, it doesn't take more than a second to hit "Comma", and even though its a small difference, at least it makes it readible for everybody else.

On a much brighter note, I've just got my Xbox 360 back. Fairly good, exept I need to get myself a new power cable as well as a new Live account, although I'm pretty sure I can get these in time.

I'm fairly looking forward to playing as The core four once again. I should have BF2 and Advanced Warfighter as well, and its going to interesting to try an recreate the Summer of '05 again. The upcoming Lan should be a blast as well; We're only going to be playing Halo 2 there.

I will also be changing my gamertag from FlynchLynch to Jazzfish, in case any of the Lan group should be reading this.

Bye all
