You know, I complain a lot about people's inability to use the English language. How can I ignore the obscene desecrations I'm constantly subjected to? How often are the people who are mangling the language the same people who yelp the loudest about 'foreigners' learning to speak English. Or maybe they're the people who think that 'American' is a different language from English? Which, by the way, is one of the most frightening and appalling things I've ever heard. I was listening to some music on an online radio station where you can request songs and dedicate them to people within a small text box when the following dedication came up;
"STARKEISHA I LUV YOO. YOO NO YOU R MAH BOO.
HAY THAT'S A RYHME.
Dedicated by
STARKEESHA
Where do I even start with this? The only words that are even spelled correctly are 'I', 'YOU', 'THAT'S', and 'A'. I'm not counting 'NO' because it's supposed to be 'KNOW'.
And the glowing pride of satisfaction for the shrewdly complex rhyming of 'YOO' and 'BOO'? Well, it just gives me the warm fuzzies for a prosperous future.
School's out. Forever.
