[INDENT]Important note: If you have trouble typing or using punctuation, please do not take the following personally; in addition, I personally would rather you participate without punctuation than to leave or stop posting.[/INDENT]
punctuation and capitalization makes it a lot easier to understand what a person is trying to say when you leave punctuation out it makes it more difficult for others to understand what you are typing for an example consider this it makes perfect sense when it has proper punctuation
that that is is that that is not is not is not that it it is
but without punctuation that statement appears to be total nonsense so please try to put in periods question marks commas and capital letters when and where they are needed thanks

That that is, is. That that is not, is not. Is not that it? It ts.

Translated:
The preceeding paragraph contains factual errors. An example is the letters do not constitute a "taotl mses;" the letters are still mostly in the proper sequence (especially compound words). Just some of the letters are messed up, and those don't travel far. Oh, and the average person who can read it takes twice or three times as long, so spelling does count for ease of reading. The only point that is completely correct is that we do read words as a whole.
If you deciphered both paragraphs, you almost certanly took many times as long with mine than Wayne's; that's because the original author(s) mixed up some of the letters, but not all. What I have done is to put the letters (between the first and the last) in alphabetical order, making sure they had no relationship to the original order. Some words will obviously be easy to deciper; there is only one way to misspell words with four letters if the first and last are not changed. But the order does count. We also gain meaning from context, so we can figure a word out if it's in a paragraph. But try to get this commonly-used word right:

if you can read this you have a strange mind too can you read this only 55 of 100 can
i couldn't believe that I could actually understand what I was reading the phenomenal power of the human mind accordingto to a research at cambridge university it doesn't matter in what order...
okay tired of typing...this comes so easy to me, you are actually typing "DEE" language :J
Quote from: AustinBostonSo, did you read it or did you figure it out?
Austin
Neither really. I looked at it and "saw" unconstitutional then double checked that the letters matched. So ~ I didn't sit there and try different letter combinations until I found one that worked, but I can't say I read a random group of letters either!
When I read a thread like this I wish I had payed more atention the 9 years I was in school. I type the colubuis methed. I spell a word, if it doesn't look right, I try again then delete the most wrong. Most of what I know I have learned by living, a wrench or gearshift don't care if you know how to spell them.

I thought my parents had lost their minds when they were laughing and singing this song on the way home from vacation. But they were having so much fun, and eventually I got the hang of what they were singing.
Does anyone else have any idea what song we're talking about, and what the words really mean?

You would be surprised what you can find on Wikipedia. Here is their article on the song (with history):
Mairzy DoatsAnd for the record, if you know the whole song, it's actually explained in the lyrics.

sorry forgot

a kid will eat ivy too wouldn't you....
My mom always sang that song, too. (ok, she probably would still if I mentioned it to her.) And, dang it - after reading this that silly song was in my head all morning!
I've always thought this one was hilarious. Hopefully it doesn't offend anyone.
Capitalization is the difference between "I helped my uncle Jack off a horse" and "I helped my uncle jack off a horse".
look im not using proper punctuation and im running with scissers
