Yup, that'd be a response to a comment I made'n someone's discussion recent. I've heard such 'fore, many've actually blocked me coz they're horrified 't my redneck-ease with a southern drawl. Others've been downright rude'n made public 'ssaults. I get't, I aint yer cup 'f tea. I make yer eyes 'n head hurt. Some 'f y'all do the same to me'n yer English'd be perfect..... The folks here't myLot 'llowed me to join, knowin' full well I dribbled oddly. They've lemme do such fer 4 years. I reckon if'n they've not troubles with 't, nor my friends here, I shall continue dribblin' 'n the rest can take their rudeness'n well...ya know.... I'd rather leave 'ntirely than to change my ways. I live such decisions to the powers that be. Not the noble few.

sadly seems such'd not be so, hon. i jest dunno how folks can be so ugly to others'n then feel 'tis justified jest coz somebody'd be diff'rent. i'd guarantee ya nobody'd be twistin' someones arm 'n forcin' to read (try to??) that which i've dribbled.

Gosh, they really don't want their brain exercised, do they? Brains need exercise. If the brain doesn't get exercise, it'll get lazy and slow and soon, one will really start to dribble. Just sit there, stare at the telly and dribble ... If my brain doesn't get exercise, I will meddle in things and make crazy plans, possibly plot revenge for things that everyone else has forgotten. So your dribbling keeps me out of trouble!

@crazyhorseladycx Well, it's a bit both here, some cash, some socialization. And the more social you are, the more cash. Some don't seem to get that. 8 seconds? That would explain some things *glares at exams* Some very good one, some that really haven't managed to even read the text and just answers something. But they can just go to another discussion and don't comment on it. I've seen some discussions here with what I consider bad English, didn't understand much of the post and some times the answers just makes you think "what?". Then I just ignore them and go on. I'm trying to give people their due at once, as many seem to forget what has happened. But some times you just have to wait and serve revenge cold.

@Torunn i marvel't what all folks seem to purchase with such funds from places such's this. i tend to jest collect 't 'n donate to charity when such 'tis grown o'er a years time. 'lrighty, bought horse wormer with't once. shame'n me! yup, 'tis 'bout 'nteractin' with folks. i find't rather fascinatin' myself, 's i get to meet folks from all o'er the globe. proud to've those friends, learnin' their cultures, etc. yup, 8 seconds. jest the time needed to ride that bull 'til the buzzer goes off, lol. i'd say such'd be from all the gadgets?? that fast, zip through nonsense 'n 'nto the next kinda put a stick'n the squirrel cage? i've seen the same 'n jest mosey down the line. the 'xact repeat 'f the news wears'n my nerves, 's well's the zillion discussions 'bout a celebrity passin'. if'n they knew such'n person 'n could add a personal spin, that'd be great. i've quite a few 'what the heck' moments, lol. reckon i think too hard? takes me a bit to decipher, put schtuff 'nto perspective, see all sides'n then plot a plan 'f action if'n such'd 'ndeed be required, lol. which reminds me, my ranchin' bud ought to be gettin' a certain package today. surprised my phone aint been ringin'. servin' such cold catches 'em 'ffguard 'n that tends to add to satisfaction.

i reckon not?? i figure many'f the folks here'd be so'n the hopes 'f makin' a few coin. i 'twas roped'nto bein' here 's some thought i needed some socialization, lol. i 'gree with ya, ones gotta step outta the box'n challenge 'emselves. sadly i hear most've the 'ttention span 'f a flea these days - 8 seconds. reckon they've no desire to ponder my dribblin' longer'n that. 'mpedes 'pon 'em gettin' that .00001 elsewhere? 'tis that so? prolly a good thingy we reside'n diff'rent continents's i fear we'd most likely be'n loads 'f troubles, lol. i'd be 'ncredibly patient when't comes to given one their dues ;)

I found no problem with the way you deliver your words. People here tends to be from many places, so they should expect different commands of English. So I think it is fair for you to not change the way you speak, because it is just you.

Oh geez. American English has many forms (is that the correct term?) or dialects (accents?) - you know what I mean . . . and a Southern drawl is definitely part of it. I appreciate a creative twist to writing . . . you've made a mark here with this and no one can say the same . . . no one here can whip up a Southern drawl piece like our crazyhorseladycx . I say please continue "dribblin'" . . . if you wrote in that "typical" English, I don't think I'd recognize ya . Anyone who is going to be rude about that can go take a hike . They'd be missing out in getting to know the wonderful person behind all this cleverness .
