Sheesh. I've had enough of these legitimate companies trying to enforce Internet shorthand. It was that Verizon link a while ago that actually changed LEGITIMATE English sentences into shorthand AUTOMATICALLY, and now they're putting annoying messages in my IM windows telling me to "KNOW IT" like my life depends on it. Not like the list of 300+ shorthand messages on their official site helps any either.

I love how you complain about shorthand but jokingly use it all the time on AIM.

...Even I am disappointed in myself for typing that.
Just note that when I type in shorthand, I am using sarcasm, like any literate human with any sense of humor would do with something as retarded as shorthand.

LD IMed me a few minutes later telling me what state you lived in. He figured it out on his own.

And then I posted it someplace I was certain you'd see it.
Gonna have to tell the guy to stop spreading information on the Squeek.

Squeek spelled Propaganda wrong.
He also spelled Barlog wrong.

Oh, no! I'm infallible! This is such a blow to my very being!
Honestly, you had to look it up to be sure.
And it's "Balrog". You're the only one on this site who things it's "Barlog", kiddo.

THAT is a "BARLOG".
And, because I'm sick and tired of your whining:

Associate yourself with the utter idiots in the game who spell EVERYTHING WRONG. "BALOG" sounds good to me. "chief stan is (space) getting attack by barlog!! !!!~"
Yeah. Go talk to them. They'll support your goals.

GAIM hates me. I had it before and it just kept crashing. Same with Trillian. I'll never figure it out. It happened on both of my PCs. No matter what I did to try to fix it, the programs just kept crashing.
It doesn't matter; the time I'm on AIM is slim to none.

I love those people. For your information, Afrobean and Kamoa say Barlog. I'm sure a few other people do.

Why would you?

Those are Balrogs. Barlogs are just typos.

I'm too used to saying Barlog now. If I could correct it easily I would, but I can't. Besides it doesn't really matter anyway.
On a related note: Squeek misspelled squeak.

Sure did.
But I'm Squeak in-game. Owned.
Mispellings are acceptable in things like usernames and company names, or so I have found out. We all know Wegmans, I hope? The founder's name is "Wegman" and it's his grocery store, so it should be "Wegman's", which is short for "Wegman's Grocery Store". Alas, there is no apostrophe in the title. While it's grammatically incorrect, a company name is a company name.

I say Barlog sometimes just because I feel like it.
PS: Guido, this is why:

They mispell it twice. But really, intentional mispellings are fun, like when I say "gimme a sex" and stuff like that. Hell, I may start calling it Teh Mircson Glarbo just for fun. d=

On topic: Today I was learning about the intronet in my tech class over at Oakland Technical Campus and I came across a section on net ettiquette in this book I was given to read.
They actually mention terms like "lol" and "btw", explaining what they mean and also saying that if used sparingly they are acceptable.
Is this not humorous?

Burn the book.
The ONLY books that I deem worthy of having Internet slang in it thus far are America: The Book and Eats, Shoots & Leaves.
