Comma splices have been around for a long time, only ignorant people use them.

Oh no, now it's nearly everyone. First it was only one LJ-friend of mine who just tended to write that way, now I'm seeing them everywhere, they're even in semi-professional material, it's awful.

AAUUUGH kill me now. KILL KILL KILL

Oh, I know -- I was just trying to be funny, and it was the first thing I thought of with a comma splice! ;-)

The Internet is drastically increasing the spread of bad language habits. I don't know what it is about a keyboard that suddenly makes ppl unable 2 spel, use complete wurds in complet sentences, or s71ck to teh actual alphabe7! And I don't only mean the teenagers. =sigh=
