Snails - Response on Threads Part 4

[CES]

Good morning, Fran, Tibs, and Atty


Raining here, prolly for the next couple of days, then I'll send it on to Tibs. Sorry, 'bout that. At least no storms involved.

 

[AttyPops]

Morning CES.

+1 for using internet speak of 'prolly' in a sentence.

 

[tiburonfirst]

morning, sunshine!

no worries! if the boy were here he'd just shake his head

i'm about ready to get on the road - y'all have a decent day!

 

[CES]

fewer letters and thus easier to type, Atty

 

[CES]

Enjoy the day, Tibs

 

[AttyPops]

You too Tibs. Good luck and stay safe.

 

[tiburonfirst]

oops! ces snuck in while i was composing AND took a call from the boy

morning,ces!

 

[CES]

Morning, Tibs

 

[AttyPops]

fewer letters and thus easier to type, Atty

Yeah, but the logic of that, in and of itself, falls a bit flat, because there's two 'l''s. Why isn't it "proly"? Because "proly" just seems wrong, compared to the normal "prolly". So I think it prolly came from spoken word first, and then prolly made it into common use on the net as a convenience, as you said. Prolly.

(I use it sometimes too, for the ease of typing thing)

 

[CES]

Since this is the internet, i thought internet-speak was appropriate. However, it may have more to do with being in alabama too long. The majority of spoken words here become 2-syllables.

Talledega = 'dega
Alabama= 'Bama
Probably = 'prolly

Many one syllable words become drawn out into two syllables too. I think it's a rule

 

[AttyPops]

Yeah, it was appropriate. That's why you got a bonus +1

The 1 -> 2 thing....lol.

 

[AttyPops]

Time to start the day.
Later CES and snails.

 

[CES]

Later, Atty. Enjoy the day
