For the record i disagree with the author of this penned letter to the Voice, talking 'slang' if you can call it that.. does make the user sound and look stupid and illiterate.. I Don't think its a generational thing eitrher, the difference for me was that back in the day we would adapt to our environment by speaking intelligently in work, and keeping the patios for friends and family. We didn't use slang and then expect everyone to understand us regardless...

The young people today for me have lost the art to adapt, and do not appear able to communicate in any other environment except their own...
