to actually put effort into something they get paid for
This is not exactly what I meant. I wonder why they are all writing URGENNTTTTT and PLLLLZZZZZZZ, instead of "Please help me, this is urgent".

I think words like 'destiny' are a way of trying to find order where none exists. - Christian Graus Entropy isn't what it used to.
It is the typing equivalent of the 3yr old WHINING their pleas: PLEAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ DAAAAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDDDDD... These kids are just more grown up... Maybe like 6-9 :-)

Yes, moronity seems to be new culture setting in which doesn't know country/culture boundary !! :sigh: It is getting spread by some half-literate software professional code monkeys who thinks that by typing in all upper case and repeating the last character will show how the question is most important in the world. And the importance which is just perceived in their mind, if available i.e. mind :rolleyes: PS: Moronity when searched on Google, gives meaning out but spell-check is giving error ! Must be written by some morons :laugh:
Thanks, Milind
Spellchecker is quite correct. If there was a need for a word for 'the quality of being a a moron' which, as the majority of dictionaries agree, there really isn't, it would have to be drawn from the adjective and would therefore be 'moronicity' or 'moronicness'. As a general rule, when comparing a Google search with a commercial spell checker (or any other 'knowledge' source), it is safer to assume that it is results from the former which are more likely to involve writers of diminished mental capacity.

One thing I have ( that is somehow related to the "different culture/different strokes" thread below) been wondering : where does the "PLLLZZZ Urgenttttt" actually come from ? Is this something cultural, like an idioms of some sort in another language ? Or a bad translation ?
