Kayla's messages on this forum show an ignorance of grammar and standard English (capitalization, punctuation, sentence structure, et cetera) I suspect that she texts a lot.: memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=5286

i do in fact text a lot well duh

i can write properly with punctuation and shit - my school work is punctuated and capitalized when needed - its just that otherwise i dont bother its a bit too much of an effort

but what the omg texting is killing our children crowd do not realize - if not for texting a lot of kids wold never be writing anything at all

before texting you could be a total illiterate and have a social life

now if you are a total illiterate you are an outcast there is more incentive to learn at least a little bit
