They might be eeeeeeeevil , but they're definitely on point.

But Vivid. I really understood what she was trying to say. I took a linguistics class, and I've learned that we have Standard American English, not proper English, and a bevy of dialects. However, the youngster needs to learn and utilize Standard English before trying to recruit a step team coach. Text message/MySpace speak does not apply in all situations, and as an African-American woman, I've never used a "3" in place of an "e" to be understood or cute.


Can we ask for an investigation of Clarksdale HS English department? I won't blame Purdue for Vivid's stance.
