Fun with tone!

Celmerdin seductively says, "Tis jus a lil too hard fer me."

Too funny.

She was talking about a box she was trying to pick, btw.

I dunno...I kind of enjoy it. I was thinking about stalking her so I could laugh at her other unintentionally funny comments.

I've found that if you start changing your tone (within reason) then those who have a constant tone will follow suit. But then you would miss all the unintended humor.

It's not just teh tone that bothers me in that statement.

It's the stupid "tis". I hate when people try accents. For the most part, they just end up sounding like they have a speech impairment or something.

I tire of all the "nae"'s, personally.

[Caiylania]

I use nae now and then. What is wrong with people at least attempting to sound in genre? Shesh.

I dislike it because many people use it. Its like how some people are bugged by ebonics and improper grammar use in RL. There is nothing "Wrong" with it, I just get tired of hearing it so often.

Quick grammar question for you then, Dighn: Does it bother you when someone says "me and Jeff" instead of "Jeff and I"? Just curious.

And I already made a post that was on-topic! Get off my back, evil monkey from space that always seems to be scratching the spot that doesn't itch!

No. Just the "nae" thing. Gets old fast.
