Well another reason would be that it doesn't feel very natural to use big words. I mean, I hate to say it, but I'm not exactly smart enough to be using them. xD I'm quite slow to understand big words like that...xD

Kind of off your topic... but... you know what urks me?
A few weeks back, I was searching for a new roleplay to join, and I found some literate wolf one. So I decided, 'Alright! Literate! This should be fun!' So... I clicked on it, skimmed the first page, then found where they actually began rp'ing. The person began... something like this:

___ padded up to ___. "hi. Im the alpha male." he said

UGH. D:<

Haha that happened to me, I went to a role play and it said Literate but it was totally not Literate then they sent me some message to join their "Literate" role play, they thought it meant realistic XD I replied to them with the definition of Literate and they replied to me,"I'm not Stoopid" Ah huh, Right. Stupid.

When I was in fifth grade, I used to sit in the back of the room and read the dictionary. o-o I was weird in fifth grade... |D

Agreed. Oh, and since I can't help myself, it's actually 'irk,' not 'urk.' |3

Dictionaries are quite interesting...
im basically never on, so if you wanna with trade me or if you message me, be prepared to wait a while for a response. this account is first and foremost a personal archive for sentimentality's sake as it was a big part of my childhood.
