    it's almost like an adoption of the spelling used on the internet, in some ways it is entirely pointless considering all of the books written with the standard arcane english spelling, but then again we still study shakespeare despite his unruly spelling [his having written before the institution of elizabeth's 'queens english']
    and americanese is fairly easy to understand, i wonder if it will work

    C'est improbable. Too many people are content with speaking only one language, and in the case of English speakers, not even very well at that.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
    -- WW2 for the l33t

    Unfortunately not the grammar aspect, though.

    Remember: that's what we like about MN, Clocker.

    I think all three of us have a picky streak; could you imagine if we were mods? We'd resemble nothing more than a klatch of old Jewish tea-hens.

    Well, I will admit to occasionally letting my inner schoolmarm run rampant, but I thought that we had decided that we liked MN because he knew so much about the Crusades.

    Did I miss a meeting?
