Oh, if you think it was bad in 2000…
LOL is now officially an English word. It’s in the Oxford English Dictionary and everything.
So is selfie. AUUUUUUUGH!
😂 was the Oxford Dictionary Word of the Year 2015. Curse this stupid English language!
Yeah just few months ago, cursive is no longer going to be taught in school..we are going backwards D:

oops for double post :/
Forgiven.
It’s the stupidest thing ever, but I actually had to retake third grade because the first time I went through, the teacher neglected to teach me cursive. Seriously, they go on and on about how knowing cursive is a skill that will help you for the rest of your life, and how not knowing it will ruin you in some unexplained way. Now the only cursive I know is my signature. It’s just like various bits of advanced algebra.
What does cursive actually do for anyone besides calligraphers?
I write cursive faster than I print. Only print, therefore, when required to. Oh, and took calligraphy decades after that began, and most styles are print variations
My printing and writing are both illegible. I’m lucky I’m a mediocre typist.
I cant stand people who dont understand the proper use of apostrophe’s.
I know that this strip is meant to riff on those who fail to use the English language properly, but do none of you wonder how Millie’s mom is able to type with paws. Trying to visualize how she is able to work a keyboard well enough to make a living as a lawyer is driving me nuts.
It’s hard to tell in this strip but their front paws are more like furry hands. The hind paws, however, remain paw-like.
Dear Strong Bad, How do you type with boxing gloves on?
Once again, Michael Bywater:
“Perhaps neither joined-up thinking nor joined-up policies can emerge until they are formulated in joined-up writing: not the infinitely correctable digital pokings of the word processor, but the preconsidered writing of pen-and-ink,in which a sentence must first be cast in the mind, then recast, and finally committed to the page…”
Thank goodness for erasable pencils!
Yes, I take the point and agree with it, but for one prone to making tiny errors in writing doing it in ink ends up just too messy.
Yes, like the old joke about “Eat your food! Think about all the starving children in India!”
“You can send my food to them then!”
So this is where the new art style began
