hey ethan im just sayin for a forum about the simpsons which i think u probably watch it if ur on this forum would mean that u don't have to show how smart u are and write lengthy posts i mean this is basically based on homer who has caused the world to be deystroyed ruined chrismas 4 times and many other stupid things which i think u might agree with me on some of these things.
I just post what is coherant. It is a very good habit to pick up as early as possible: learn proper grammar so you don't have to ask yourself basic questions like "is the plural formed with an apostrophe s or just an s?", proof-read a post to minimize typos and accidental omissions, seperate things into paragraphs so people do not get lost reading what you have to say... You can't get very far in life if you write out a contract for an important client that includes terms like "ok u must giev us 10% of the products earning k? thx plz sine here x__________ (lol x marks teh spott!1)" :-)
You either have a good vocabulary and make writing coherant, structured material something habitual, or you do not (or deliberately choose not to express it.) In retrospect, a very intelligent person could simply have the habit of using shorthand and a restricted vocabulary when writing - it really has nothing to do with "being intelligent;" it's just a habit.
(And let us say, if I were trying to "show how smart I am," I could have picked a bigger and more active forum with a far more serious theme than a cartoon. Gotta love that Halloween special where Ned starts seeing visions of the future and Homer destroys Springfield. Stupidity of that caliber is mind-boggling. :-D )
