oh no. Well, you triggered it, but it should not reflect on you. Don't think of it that way at all. It's the same reason pictographs (little icon-like images that replace labels on mechanical devices like automatic window buttons in cars) make me irrationally angry. I just... I just don't always interpret single-shape images or a particular combination of 3 or for letters the way everyone else does. Sometimes I do, sometimes I have absolutley no idea what the other person is talking about. And it irritates me, because I went to all the trouble to learn to speak when I was an infant and then again to read when I was 5 or 6, and everyone else should damn well use the language.
But like I said, it's kind of an irrational anger. I don't usually bring it up.
I have the same problem with "text" speech. it looks sloppy to me, but that angry just seems extra irrational because I can't spell worth a damn, so who am I to complain? But stilll it annoys me!
me too. hate hate hate. i started using it for a while, but could never be consistant. And then i joined Crumbling Walls forum of Spuffers, and no one there used it, so i stopped trying. And now i've come to look down on all of it.
