Exactly my point. :wink:

Exactly my point. :wink:

Did you know that most Native American languages had no curse words?

...prior to the 14th century?

Actually, they still don't. They use English curse words. (American English, to be more specific)

From what I've seen, only people who visit the internet less often, use lol in real life.

here, where we speak Dutch, 'lol' is actually the direct translation of 'fun'
so this point is hereby declared INVALID
:smile:

I fun'd.

Thing is if lol becomes a real and commonplace word (as it is around Wolvo already) is it really a bad thing?

IMO being annoyed by something as trivial as what words someone uses is just petty.

Btw, they pronounce it "Loll" here not "L O L".

Everyone is bugging me to facebook, I'm settled with facebook. I'm no more going to Twitter or any other rubbish.

I also do MSN and IRCing a faggot in HBGAMES.ORG

Will post more tommorrow.

I was insinuating that before we (the white man) showed up, they had nothing to be pissed off about.

Reminds me of what I saw on TV this morning...
Social Networks encouraging anorexia and bulimia...

It's sad that so many people risk their lives... and some networks actually say it's good?
Jeez!
I mean, they ditch their families, friends and HEALTH, so that they THINK they look good?
It's absolutely stupid.
To be honest, I'd rather be a lard-arse than anorexic. At least I wont snap in half when someone pokes me.
As it is, I'm an in-betweener... But my point is, so many kids get sent awry by these sites, into thinking it's okay to starve yourself because you'll be cool...
The media's just as bad, they go on about overweight people dying from heart attacks, they say nothing about the OTHER end of the spectrum.
I had a friend once, average size, and she heard about all those warnings of fat people dying, and suddenly she's stick thin and still crying because she thinks she's fat.

Some sites need to PULL THEIR FINGER OUT and realise that they might as well encourage drinking bleach for all the good they're doing.
