[DRAFT] omg wtf

Postby Comfed » Fri Mar 12, 2021 8:36 pm

Today's national security briefing was riddled with popular internet acronyms like "omg" and "irl", used the expression "lmao" when talking about a known Maxtopian terrorist, and worst of all, when you asked your young secretary why this happened, she responded with a memo that read only "TBH IDK." Your elderly cabinet, outraged, demanded a meeting, and chose to hold it in your office.

"What in tarnantion?!" spits old and frail Foreign Minister @@RANDOMNAME@@ through @@HIS@@ dentures. "Back in my day, people used their words to communicate. You hear that, @@LEADER@@? Words! Not these silly newfangled 'woke' new slang. And it certainly doesn't belong in your national security briefings, for Violet's sake. We need grammar standards in all government texts!"
Effect: public apologies are often issued by @@LEADER@@ because a public statement contained an acronym

"OMG, chill out, man," says your young and hip Environment Minister @@RANDOMNAME@@, who appears to be wearing @@HIS@@ t-shirt and shorts. "Like, get with it, bro. Stop being so uptight. We should, like, totally encourage casual modern expressions in government papers. It would help people who, like, don't like to write, you know what I mean?"
Effect: the government of @@NAME@@ is regarded as totally chill and totally illiterate

“Good day, @@LEADER@@,” whispers your sinister Minister of Truth in your ear, “It seems the problem here is this filthy ‘youth culture’ saturating our glorious @@NAME@@, and do you know where it comes from?” @@HE@@ suddenly shouts, “The INTERNET! The internet is the ultimate menace to society and no @@DENONYM@@ should be allowed to access it.”
Effect: every school in @@NAME@@ has many a poster reading “beware of internet”

Another option mandating every government report into a collection of acronyms made by the millitary.

This idea reminds me a lot of the third option of Issue #721 "A Lack Of Comma Sense", which forces the government to write using texting lingo... maybe that option could trigger this issue? Just a thought...

We already have a pair of issues that deal with texting lingo/legalese/other nuances.

I assume you mean the afore-mentioned #721 as well as #567 "Syntax Destruction"? Because if so, #567 is different enough to not be too much of a problem (at least in my opinion) and, as I already mentioned, this draft would only need a bit of reworking to serve as a follow-up to #721, and I'd love to help make that possible, since that particular option for #721 could really use a follow-up...
