Basically this is a thread where you can discuss whatever you wish - what happened at work today, pop girls, recent happenings - but you are not allowed to use smileys, gifs, or 'ATRL Slang' in any form.
This means no

etc, you have to keep your grammar correct and completely refrain from using smileys and gifs whatsoever.
I think that the slang that you see around the site is a good part of it; it adds humor, and is generally a part of the ATRL experience. Removing it is just taking away a part of ATRL that makes it what it is.

Woman Files for Divorce Over The Way Her Husband Eats Peas
Quote:
The woman in Kuwait is said to have been disgusted at the ‘shocking sight’ of her new husband using bread rather than cutlery.
The incident was apparently so traumatising the unnamed newlywed decided to try and end her marriage just days after their wedding, Gulf News quotes Kuwait newspaper Al-Qabas as reporting.
In another case highlighted by the paper, a woman attempted to divorce her husband after he insisted on squeezing toothpaste tubes in the middle and not at the end.
‘We are always arguing. I keep telling him that he should squeeze in the end of the tube, but he stubbornly refuses and keeps squeezing it in the middle. He is so obstinate,’ the woman is quoted as saying.
a lot of that slang is actually derived from dialects which linguists consider to be equally valid and correct as standard english
not to rain on your parade with scholarly info but i don't like the way this thread comes across

This. I think it really adds humor and gives the website character. The amount of times I've blatantly laughed at some ridiculous slang or gif is ridiculous
