I'm finding posts harder and harder to actually decypher every day! Am I just losing touch with "yoof" culture or is it really as bad as it seems?

You've got to remember the newer users are 17ish, corsa's are cheap first cars, you're never going to get perfect private school like writing on here.

It is annoying as hell though.

I'm not looking for private school educated pompousness with people refering to themselves as 'one', but legible English would be nice!

Is the UK comprehensive education system that bad?

Daveskater will be in here on the double because you made a generalisation about corsa owners, a bit like always buying incorrect offset wheels and front bumpers never ever fitting properly.

It's a tad annoying but I've got used to it over the years, perhaps a loose correlation between the two then
