Why should anyone bother answering your questions when you can't even be bothered to hit the shift key or to type out the word "you"?

Seriously, how is it that you're so lazy that you can't even type complete words or use upper case letters to begin your sentences?

Because i like wrighting it this way. and if U don't like the my question or my way of expressing it, U can do like U didn't see this post instead of wasting your time and my time as well.
I asked politely so why answering this way ? people seriously !!

You like "wrighting" that way and expect to be taken seriously? Good luck with that.

I've said it before and I'm sure that I'll need to say it again: You can come here and ask any question, but absolutely no one has any obligation whatsoever to answer you. Most of us are eager to help people who appear mature and intelligent. There is no reason to help or encourage people like you who don't.

Grow up and try to realize that the way you write affects the way you are perceived. Why should those of us who have worked and lived in Korea for many years bother to help you when you can't even bother to try to give a good impression of yourself? I rather imagine that you would wear a dirty t-shirt and pair of wrinkled shorts to a job interview and then sit around whining about it not being fair that you didn't get the job.

I know that it's "writing" I just misspelled it.
And nobody obliged you to answer me, and you don't know me enough to judge me! I may be way better than you who are bashing in me since the begining
If I don't like english or am weak in it doesn't mean that I'm a stupid person or i don't know what! I m maybe better than you in another languages.
And who knows maybe you are the one who went to a job interview with a dirty t-shirt ... and you wanna believe that you aren't the only one. Let's end it here! it would be better.


Anyways I asked those questions to people who are interested and can answer without useless comments, because I'm heading to korea next year to korea and wanna have a global idea about the real life there.

What attracted me about Korea was the money and the women.

Chose to leave though because even though I earn less I live/work in a country that is so far more relaxed and easy going.

Yellow fever and to save money. It's not so bad here as some people say. If you can manage to stay single forever here, it would be a hard place to leave at any age.

"Come for the K pop, stay for the kimchee"

That was the runner-up slogan from a few years ago, but "Korea Sparkling" was chosen instead.

In particular, this is a board for English teacher, so I don't think that style, spelling and grammar are entirely out of place here.

But really, good (writing) style should never go out of style. The OP's style says "I'm writing this on a 2002 handphone with my pants pulled down below my buttocks, wearing my baseball cap sideways." You don't get to ask personal questions to strangers doing that.

You don't have to be a "grammar Nazi" to cringe at this type of writing.
