I had a friend just tell me I need to "ax someone" about something. While I think it is hokey to type like that I think users must actually know what they are truly typing in order to type like that. When you speak like that I think you are either being lazy with your grammar or trying to be cool, but to type like that actually takes more time to think it out.

Haha, isn't there some new user here with "eric" in his username who types all in ebonics? At first I though he was legitimately Jamaican, then I realized he's just being a dumbass. It was funny; now it just induces headaches.

I see. You've used lower class urban British slang to mock lower class urban American slang. Well played.

Ebonics is considered by some to be its own language, not slang. Hence why some people wanted it taught in schools. I don't recall any movements to teach slang in schools.

ya fucking muppet

rcxeric? It looks like he got the perma-ban hammer. Supposedly Ebonics is a bannable offense, even when uncle Jamil isn't around to help fix it up.
