I was reading an article about the newest version of the iPhone that’s now available, and when I scanned the comments, I noticed one written in a far-too-typical internet rambling style with no capitalization or punctuation.
What really caught my eye was the comment that immediately followed it:
“First if all, what the hell are you talking about? You are the most illiterate person I have come across in many years, and I’m 16. I have no idea what you’re trying to say; there’s absolutely no punctuation in any of your sentences, including periods; and your overall statement is just sloppy. For the future, if you’re trying to make a point, make it clearly and get a bit more educated.
p.s. I’m 16 years old and I speak better than you.”
I’d like to shake that 16-year-old’s hand! It’s rare that you’d find a young person advocating the use of actual English!  When it comes to grammar, there may be a sliver of hope left after all.
