Bamos' Nightmare
Bamos hates it when people spell or shorten words that don't need their construction changed.
This is what my mate just sent me on msn:
"sounds fun, well i got bk frm florida on d ova day wich woz a laff"
That is bad grammar and punctuation and should give bamos a field day.
I'd kill your friend if I ever met them
I have an ex-friend who writes in this retarded way.
It's pretty pathetic. Like they are 10 or something. It makes them sound very stupid and everyone hates it but they persist in doing it anyway.
Lotz of LuVvVvVvV!
XxXXXxx

friends with fideL?
LoL
My mother sent me
a text last night saying 'C U Soon lv mum'
I am on my way up north to put a dagger through her cold dark heart this very evening.
Really?
That sounds very oedipal... Are you goign to sleep with your father after?
sounds Electric!
I can imagine that MAYBE being
quicker to type on a phone but on a PC during MSN?
I was on one forum where this girl kept using text speak and making herself read like a bimbo. It then transpired she could type at 60 wpm or something ridiculous. WTF?
2nd date:
the amiga vs amstrad preference test.
3rd date:
binary fun!
4th date:
virtual kiss!
I'll get you Warny!
*shakes fist*
69 wpm!
I am 13 words HOTTer than Felllady. Shwing!
how
many mistakes?
you beat my score and that means i hate you.
now THAT is hott.
er.
i'd be a lot better if i'd ever had any actual typing training. my skillz are entirely derived from too many years on ICQ and MSN and i'll probably destroy my hands by the time i'm 35 as a result..
70
It seems like I am, in a way, a damn fine catch.
75 wmp
with 5 mistakes.
fast and faulty?
You're like a european sports car, almost.
46 words per minute
not very HOTT then.
80.
Not bad. I'm no mavis beacon though.
What's your minimum criteria, theo?
45?
2?
Erm...
PAEDO
Hmm
Your speed was: 59wpm.
You made 5 mistakes
A lot faster than I thought, actually. I tend to be faster and make less mistakes if I look away from the screen and keyboard entirely, I find. Odd that.
70wpm
NO mistakes.
PHWOOMPH
c'mon
SOMEONE do worse than me? Please?
it's the squirrel claws
they don't help with typing, too clunky. good for foraging for acorns, though.
yeah
BRING ON THE ACORN CONTEST
^ I'm going to form a band called that
it's an ace name.

can i play it in said band?
Hah hah
"As well as being a calculator, it could also be powered up in a mode that offered a handful of monophonic sounds that could be played from the two-octave 'keyboard' (an inappropriate term for the row of unplayable and unreliable switches you can see above)"
My mate had on back when they were new and impressive. So, what, 1985? It was proper bo.
someone had one at munkyfest at the weekend
it was actually the most amazingly rubbish thing ever and now i want one.
you certainly can!
wait, can you do handclaps?
well
i have two hands, so i don't see why not.
for some reason, i actually would like to be in a really twee band...
Sorry
59. You're officially rubbish.
I bet you look sort of like him too
have you dyed your hair blonde and become insufferably smug?
Would it be sad
to take the test a few more times until I beat you?
Would it?
42wpm, one mistake
this actually genuinely upsets me and makes me think i'll never get a job ever. seriously.
