    Have you come across essays written in txtesque yet? The best laugh I had in ages was one (Admittedly a very good parody) of "rmeo n jlet", with the memorable line "wer4 rt tho rmeo?".

    Seriously though, I had grammar and punctuation drilled into me from a very young age. Typos are understandable, and /.ers leap on them far too eagerly, but sometimes you have sentences which roll on and on with no form of punctuation in sight. Grammar isn't too bad, but evidently some kids just don't get it.
