Someone should explain to me why, if English is your primary language...if that's what you speak over half the time, and choose to write in, why write with an accent...why the dialect?

How would you all like to try and read all of my entries if they were in a Southern (American) dialect? Yeah...neither would I. (point of ref: I don't HAVE a Southern accent, but if I did...)

At any rate, I can take writing in accent and dialect from some very well-written short stories, but what the fuck?

Why?
Really...I'm curious

I'm not being argumentative or anything, I was just saying why I think he's a cool guy. I didn't mean any of those things to be in opposition of anything you've said.

And I do understand, I know what you meant. Sure, most people don't type like they speak without pause, but so what? He does. Of course, I also see where you're coming from. Maybe I'm just reluctant to think that this fellow is condescending, me being a person who often inadvertantly insults people on the internet ;)
I guess my stance begins and ends at "he seems cool to me."

I'm sorry to butt in, I have no place in this conversaion :)

Yeah you are, ya freakin' Libra.

Don't apologize. You're completely entitled to your opinion. If I really wanted a private journal, I'd lock it or keep a paper one...which I do. :)
