THAT was not a typo. THAT was gibberish.

AKA, I really have no idea what you said. I'm sure you're intelligent, but that doesn't mean you're right. If you'd like to clarify your problems, I'll respond more appropriately.
As for my feelings on black women, I don't know what you're talking about. Once again, clarify if you wish, and I'll get back to you.

I also wish that the poster was closer to my age or mine to hers!  |
Wait... did you just say you wished the Chi Phi was closer to your age? Chi Phi, like the fraternity... boys.. men... males...
Dirty...

If you want to hate baby, that's okay... You ain't got no game or skillz, but you can hate...
Which is probably the whole point to this pointless act. It just goes to show you that the Chi Phi pledges at UGA have no game or skillz and they have to show naked ladies to folks driving down to street to get some...

I wasn't correcting someone's typo or simple mistake, like you. It seems like you do that alot.
I don't care if someone wants to type in ebonics, i'm not going to "correct" them.....but I think you should consider how you sound if you are going to try to insult someone. Thats why I made the comment.

I think you can agree that the Chi Phi's post was more then a "simple mistake", and especially humorous, being that he was trying to defend the integrity of his fraternity. Typos don't bother me, except, as you're saying, when someone is trying to be insulting and screws it up, however, ridiculously third-grade looking posts do. Most people who post here have at least a highschool diploma, it would be nice if posts here reflect that.

I see your point...but it is also a message board. I mean, he spelled that "taht" and left a couple letters of the ends of a couple words. Big deal.

Mac'
I agree with you.
IIRC a few weeks ago something along the lines of "This is a message board, get over it. If you can not get over it, get off of it" was posted towards me when I posted something that ruffled a few feathers.
