OPTIONS! WTF ARE U THINKIN?
YOUR ON THE INTERNET SON!
ps, if it makes you feel better to write like an English major, no1 is gonna care
pps, do I write my papers/resumes/ or cover letters like this… doesn’t matter, because your an English major
i mean… obvi not bro, but since we are playing the whole say what goes w/o saying thing…
Yes, I do. IRL I speak with a lot of slang/ebonics but that doesn’t make me want to go online and post incoherent paragraphs of jibberish. Honestly, spelling these weird ass words seem more troublesome than spelling the words correctly.
I try to decipher your posts but most of the time I just skip past it because I don’t want to spend the extra amount of energy trying to understand your posts.
Since you are a regular poster I would assume that you would like your post read. All you would have to do is use semi decent English and it would be greasy baby!
I don’t have a view on linguistics. I have all the information I learned in my classes that gets repeated because niggas think dotting I’s and crossing T’s constitutes knowing about languages.
I think people have issues less with you not using proper English all the time and more with you being fucking retarded. They’re just being nice about it and assuming you’re not an imbecile, and because you’re such a dumbass you can’t recognize that they’re giving you the benefit of the doubt. Also @ “waaaaaaah you can’t judge me you don’t knowwwww meeeeee, my vagina hurts, btw you’re (sorry, “your”) a ****** and a guilty gear player, whatever the fuck that means.” It’s probably better for everybody nobody understands what the fuck you’re talking about, because the parts we can understand just make you look dumb as fuck.
Bullshit dude. His posts are full of typos, half sentences and shit that doesn’t make any fucking sense to anyone but Nando. No body is asking for perfect grammer. Their asking for legibility something he lacks completely.

As a former English major, yeah, his posts scare the hell out of me. As someone who will end up going through alternate certification to be an English teacher, they inspire me because there is no way in all living hell I will let students out into the world without them knowing how to work a sentence. As an anthropologist, it is pretty hilarious how so far it is him and the Ax4l_M4st3r guy who write in a completely different way than the community; blows my mind as to why. But for the most part, yeah he is writing in English; no whatever dialect is hard for you guys to read because of how different it is. If he can do better, he probably should instead of constantly coming in to shit on the thread.
Not a belief. Until something better comes along that explains as much as Chomsky’s work, his explanations make more sense than any of the bickering you guys have posted. And yes, I could write out the full trees, no I won’t do it because it is too hard to format them for the forum. Already did that shit once in another thread, not gonna go through that much trouble again.
Yes, a belief. And a bad one, at that. Noam’s theories of language are tantamount to asserting God exists. The belief that languages exist in some Kantian form, above, beyond, and transcending the human brain is fucking ludicrous. Structuralism offers a much more viable and verifiable alternative to Noam’s fairy speak.
If you can draw out a coherent, logically plausible tree for Nando’s alleged dialect, then either post it up, or lose any claim to credibility. It won’t be factual, but it might provide for giggles and a nod of respect for your own creative capabilities.
It’s friday! Wasn’t too stoked seeing the thread get locked, I mean, who cares if it’s considered spamming, it was spamming in a positive sense(very rarely I see that in the forums). But over in Denver, it’s sunny, girls are starting to wear less clothing, and I feel super!
Well, seeing as I wear boxer briefs, and I’d wager the rest of GD sports them, boxers, or goes commando (boel), I’d say that might be the most accurate assertion you’ve made, these last few pages, m’man! :razzy:
