That sounds stupid. "Prolly, put the kettle on, prolly put the kettle on, prolly put the kettle on, we'll all have tea."
: Ok, I know it saves some time on the internet and all, but one word has really bothered me lately. It is when people write "prolly" instead of "probably".
: When I say it in my typical southern drawl, I no doubt drop one of the Bs myself "problee", but I know how to spell it. I just see it in posts, and always assume it is misspelled. Just letting those who use this word know what I think when I see it.
