Transformation of the English Langu4ge

Transformation of the English Langu4ge

Throughout the history of the English language
There have been many changes that have taken place
Some large that change the way people write for speak
Some small and insignificant on the grand scheme of things
It is just the natural evolution of the written and spoken language
But once the change happens to go back is impossible
The literary changes send previous beliefs away
Blasting through generation gaps
Doing away with stereotypes
Creaming clichés
Destroying slang

S0me are quick and without much resistance
Others take a long 7ime to accept
They stay out of the mainstre4m for a time
But slowly infect like a \/irus the language
Eventu4lly many of them fade away
Disappearing from <ommon speak
But no matter how long it takes to accep7
How painsta|<ing it is for language to change
One thing re/\/\ains completely the same
Language will never, ever be the sam3.

Mike, we agree!... does this mean you'll stop walking around the office finding different ways to use the pseudo-word "pwned"?

Times like this make me glad i spent my teen years in the 90's. I will NEVER get why using a "7" instead of a "T" is clever.... Maybe I am just a grumpy old gamer.
