. . . People use "am" in the place of "I'm". Got a text from a naija girl saying "am coming", which made her lose a few points with that side of my brain that processes attraction.  |

Sorry. I guess she didnt realize it would matter. Or expected you to focus on the package and not the audio presentation. |

tpiah!: It's something that happens often enough, especially here on NL. One of those pet peeves I suppose. |

190: @OP I don't see the correlation between this topic and romance. |
| Re: Am I The Only One Who Cringes When . . . by MissyB3(f): 12:13am On Feb 12, 2011 |
It's not cool. Some use 'Your' in place of 'You're'. |

@ OP I see no meaning in what you are emphasizing  |
| Re: Am I The Only One Who Cringes When . . . by Nobody: 12:38am On Feb 12, 2011 |
It's a pet peeve. and it affects romance because pet-peeves generally do. |
| Re: Am I The Only One Who Cringes When . . . by Nobody: 12:54am On Feb 12, 2011 |
@Buff I agree. 190 does it all of the time both on and off NL. |

That part of your brain that processes information needs some little rewiring, no major fault o, just a little tunning up. |
| Re: Am I The Only One Who Cringes When . . . by Nobody: 1:08am On Feb 12, 2011 |
@190  @Buff I also hate it when ppl say 'yhue' instead of 'you'. it's like do you realize you all waste MORE TIME with the unnecessary h and e? |

Missy ★ B: That one is people not having a grasp of the English language. Your/you're, were/we're, those ones annoy me most. |

| Re: Am I The Only One Who Cringes When . . . by Nobody: 5:27am On Feb 12, 2011 |
190: I kinda figured that. I remember another picture she had but tpiah picked on her saying she had too much acne. i think that is why she changed it. hmmmmm. if it really was her before she looked better. well i guess i gotta update my "nl's pretty babes" list lolz. |

MzD@rkSkin: please do cos 90% of nl ladies pics are fake!! |
| Re: Am I The Only One Who Cringes When . . . by Nobody: 5:53am On Feb 12, 2011 |
190:  not mine tho lol. ogugua88: Although we all have our annoyances with certain misspellings and grammatical errors, we must keep it in mind that all languages ESPECIALLY English, are mutations to begin with (germanic mixed with romance languages and even spanish/caribbean) so really it is just part of human nature (especially black folks lol) to remix what is already established. |

| Re: Am I The Only One Who Cringes When . . . by Nobody: 7:09am On Feb 12, 2011 |
MzD@rkSkin: excuse you? would be nice if you both learnt to keep your mouths out of matters that dont concern you. however, you dont have to. |

Pakistan is still getting bombed even as we speak, poster! I want you to understand that there are worse problems in the world than your gurl replacing i'm with am. |
| Re: Am I The Only One Who Cringes When . . . by eldav(m): 10:13am On Feb 12, 2011 |
@0p,I understand u. A girl who cant command good english,be it written or spoken,is a turn off. |
| Re: Am I The Only One Who Cringes When . . . by LordReed(m): 10:22am On Feb 12, 2011 |
@2buff Sorry to say bro but on this score your pet peeve is silly because it is misguided. That particular phrase you quoted is grammatically correct so if anyone should be losing points its you. |
