LiKe OmG. DISh iSh sOOoOOoOO kEwL. I LIk leaRneD hOw 2 uSe thE inTeRnEt aNd nOw i’M LiK sOoO PoPuLaR n StuFs.

I’m sorry. I don’t really type like that, but I did type that for a reason. To annoy you. I was annoying myself while I was writing that.  It took a good 2 to 3 minutes to type that first line. So how do pre-teens and teens do that? How do they read that?  And most importantly, why write/type like that?!

I grew up with the internet since the days of AOL 1.0 floppy disks. As a teenage geek during school lunch, all the “popular” kids went to the popular kids lunch areas.  I, on the other hand ran to the school computer lab as fast as a could to learn HTML, networking, and how to rocket jump in Team Fortress 1.   I always had some sort of annoyance towards those “popular” kids.  They all dressed alike, talked alike, and at some cases even had the same handwriting styles.

But now it feel as though they are stepping into my world.  Teenagers have learned to use the “internets” and are annoying me more and more. At first I thought MySpace was a good idea when it first came out.  Then they learned how to “code” their own HTML.  Since then, I haven’t visited MySpace until I created the “Why I hate MySpace” video.

I really feel as though I’m like an old grandpa sitting on a rocking chair yelling at kids to “get off my yard.”  Why can’t teens just use the internet for what it’s meant for.  Research, a creative outlet, a way to share stories, and read stories. If you’re going to use the internet just to “like say um stuff such as” why a forum member called you dumb. Just keep it to yourself and don’t feed the trolls.

Here is one more video that’s even worse than the first. Try watching it all the way through. I know I couldn’t.

    In response to dajebus.

    If you’re going to go on someones website and insult them at least use somewhat proper grammar. It does not have to be the Queens English… but damn.

    Capitalize the first letters of a sentence. Capitalize “I” when you don’t capitalize it you make yourself seem non-important (which you are). “Your” is a possessive pronoun whereas “You’re” is a conjunction of “you are.”

    Example for “Your”:

    That’s YOUR PSP.

    Example for “You’re”

    You’re gay dajebus and I’m glad that you are not looking at this website anymore because it’s (that is another conjunction of “It is”) apparent that YOU my friend are the moron.

    People like you dajebus are the reason people get away with making shit-for-content videos like these two that Pixelated Geek has posted.

    Not all kids talk and act like this. Like me, i use the internet almost everyday for about 6 hours straight. I will admit that this is annoying. But not every teen spells like you did(It annoys the hell out of me to). So please next time you go and bash teens like this get a little more info please.

    The thing is… You might have not said specifically “all teens”, but you did certainly stereotype.
    This girl has every right to do what she wants on the internet. While you may think that teenagers MUST use the internet the way you used it, times have changed, maybe you need to realise that. I think the main reason you’re bashing this girl is because of your teenage experiences. Not all teenagers are like the ones you didn’t get along with when you were younger. Don’t hold a grudge dude.
    Also where is “your world”? It certainly can’t be the internet, as the internet is everyone’s world. Look around you. Who made you in charge of the internet and who enters it?

    Just thinking but.. That’s really creepy. >: Also, I am a teenager, and yes, that video is sufficiently creepy for me to go running and screaming for the hills.

  8. headphonezz says:

    i know her

    LanceH. Please re-read the article. I did not say ALL teens are like this and shouldn’t use the internet. Teens like HER shouldn’t use the internet. Also, I don’t need more info because I watched the internet grow from a baby AOL 1.0 floppy disk to what it is now. Through those years I’ve experienced almost everything you could form the internets.
