So you're trying to say the words because and 'cause are too complex.

You're arguing semantics to formulate a strawman rebuttal; you're wasting time.

Also, by making the word 'because' smaller you actually make it more complex because in order to understand it's origins and meaning you must also know the meaning of because. Where before knowledge of one word would suffice, you've turned it into two.

Hence the meaning of "cuz" to be understood immediately by anyone with a smidgen of intelligence, making the full word completely arbitrary in this context.

Don't you ever get bored of drama, Ike?

The meaning of the words "because" and "'cause" can easily be connected to their use as "the cause being." In contrast, the word "cuz" could be difficult to relate to its meaning without knowledge of its etymology. Because of the fact that the word "cuz" needs "because" in order to be effective it is redundant. It also saves minimal time and can be confusing to English language learners.

It also saves minimal time

In reality it may cause more time trying to explain it like right now.

Except "cuz" is used everywhere in the world where English is the native language, and it's one of the first colloquialisms children learn to utilize.

This is an English-speaking community, and as such, we don't write in strict prose or shy away from idioms so that Furling can understand us.

I can't believe you guys are arguing over the word "cuz."

Ay yo no one axed u cuz

I can't believe you guys are arguing over the word "cuz."

Stocking knows that purposely typing words like "cuz" has been known to get people pissed off about it. This wasn't the first time, I recall.

It also strikes me as a little bit hypocritical that you undoubtedly attempt to use "KiL STOKIN" as a method of diminishing Lord Tony's intelligence. "KiL STOKIN" is indeed a shortening of "Kill Stocking" that is completely understandable. You attempt portray that as unintelligent while, according to your argument, that is completely intelligent.

It kind of suggests that you don't believe what you are saying, or perhaps have rethought it.

That doesn't take away from the fact that it is super redundant in its existence and nearly useless. On top of that the word "'cause" has existed much longer than "cuz" and is also more formal so it would make sense that the word "'cause" is what children are actually learning.

Also, just because you can make a word that people understand doesn't mean you should use it. It can remove the logic from the structures of words and make it extremely confusing to learn. Using such words just make it more difficult for others. Sure you are using it now inside of a group who understands it, but then it become a habit and commonplace which will temporarily confuse people who come across it.

this is the most useless argument I've ever seen

what the heck

every drama

EVERY DRAMA I MAKE. Somebody gets banned, and it's never the person the drama is about.
Yeah because y- OH forget IM NOT DOING IT AGAIN NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


-argument about the word cuz-

The tiny bit of faith i had in humanity was just eaten by a space bear.

Maybe if you're a foreigner and don't know English at all.

this is the most useless argument I've ever seen
Doomonkey is just grasping at straws to try to back up his dead point and Stocking is actually bothering to reply to the dipstuff.

It's funny because I didn't start the argument and don't need to grasp for anything to prove my point.
