Show of hands...

...How many of you find it almost impossible to type the word NEWS in any situation, without doing it in capital letters?

Also, is there any other situation where your love for Prince's work makes you write a different, Prince related word, rather than what you meant to write?

Not really, no. I think he should learn to write properly - it would be a sign of maturity. Why, he's been doing all those "eye"s and "2"s and "U"s and "heart"s and "no"s for TWENTY years now, and it's only getting worse with all those "B"s and "C"s and "cartman"s and shit. I mean, isn't he ever gonna grow up?

Yeah, the '2's and 'U's were kinda fun...
but using 'eye's really crossed the line.
And I found it vaguely annoying when
he started to apply it to his older songs
which didn't originally use it, and cover
versions of other people's songs.

He was (and is) ahead of his time. Everyone who uses a cell phone, uses the same short cuts - U, 2, C, 4, R etc.

Oh God - fuck each other and get it over with will u? lol
I wrote in 'u's and '2's back in the mid eighties when I was at school.
Now it's just a bloody bad habit, but I just find it easier and quicker.
Its now become my shorthand, and 2 be honest has very little 2 do with the little guy anymore.

PS: Haystack - Ive a sling going spare if ya need it 4 Cloudyboi.
You'll have 2 provide your own Crisco tho!
