Oh my! I wish I could post the entire entry but that would simply hurt all of our heads, wouldn’t it? Or should I say: it be inflicted around our pro quite heads ongoing?

Seriously folks, I don’t make this stuff up. I suspect that this particular example is the result of spinning/forum spamming software. These excerpts appeared, briefly, on a forum and have since been deleted. All I have to say is “Huh?”

Saw this one on Twitter: “I suk at writing & need ur help. . .”

From the “Pat, I’d like to buy a vowel (or a consonant)” department: Don’t drop consonants (or vowels) and go with lame shortcuts just because you’re using Twitter. Don’t use “ur” for “your.” Yeah, we get that Twitter has that pesky 140-character limit but the same sentence can be said properly without the abbreviations.

Case in point:

Original

• I suk at writing & need ur help (31 characters – 8 words)

Revised

• I suck at writing and need help (31 characters – 7 words)
• I need help with my writing (27 characters – 6 words)
• Help me improve my writing (28 characters – 6 words)
• My writing sucks. Help? (23 characters – 4 words)

Just goes to show you that not only does every word count, every character counts. Choose wisely and don’t confuse lazy writing with sucky writing.

I’m hoping this is a joke, but I’m afraid it’s probably not. Sad really.

I stumbled upon the above sentence the other day and immediately thought, “Huh?” This sentence reinforces the importance of clarity, word choice, punctuation, and proofreading all at once. I may even print that sentence out and put it on my bulletin board as a constant reminder.
