I'm wondering about the lazy person that decided instead of saying "does not", or "did not", or "whatnot" (<--for apostrophes="" br="" in="" nobody="" o="" of="" place="" put="" should="" that="" the="" we="">Is it really so hard to leave that o in there?
How much extra time does it actually take?
Apparently, apostrophes are a lot quicker.
The curves on the o can take longer if you haven't had practice.
What about the word didn't?
Instead of leaving it as "did not", we shortened it.
But in the past few years people have changed it to di'hint, dropping the second d altogether.
What about the first "d"?
Will it be changed one day to an "h" as well?
So we'll say, "Oh no you hi'hint!"
I think there is some letter discrimination going on.
Case in point:
I live by a city called "Renton".
Most people say "Ren-ton", some say "Ren-tin", but now, some are saying "Reh-in".
The t is disappearing.
Instead of eating toast for breakfast, one day you'll be eating hoast.
I'm pretty sure we need to do something about these disappearing letters before it's too late.
Get on that, will you?
