I agree with Lynne Truss. I'm sick of being told using correct English isn't important. All this 'language is evolving, text speak is just a new dialect' nonsense is just an excuse thick people use to mask their ignorance! If I see the words 'should of' instead of 'should've' appear one more time I will eat my own head!
