Deer booksbikebeer: YOUR DUMB!
Highly intelligent, Timmy. Thanks for that. And thanks for getting my name right, too!
I think I'll leave you all now. The only reason I pointed out the deer/dear issue initially was due to the irony of the OP complaining about word usage when they cannot get their own word usage straight.
Cheers.
Deer dumbass...I mean Deer booksbikesbeer:
"Deer Brojos" is not necessarily internet slang, but it [/\b]is a letsrun.com meme. Remember the "Deer Kara Goucher" and "Is Adam Goucher update?" threads?
No different than the kid up above saying "YOUR DUMB".
Notice how when the person answered me in the 2nd post he addressed me "Deer major a-hole."
More proper nouns...
New England Championships = New Englands.
hence, "Foot Lockers"

Well excuse me, I didn't realize you were the gatekeeper for proper internet slang.
I always thought internet slang was an ever growing, ever changing, form of slang. I though all slang was ever open to adaptation. You have obviously decided to lock the doors on internet slang evolution.
The purpose of internet slang is to either shorten the word, pronounce something that isn't normally pronounced, or to change the sound of the word in some way, or provide an acronym. The conversion from dear to deer does none of those things. It is just a grammatical error. If you make a mistake while calling out someone for their grammatical error, you can't just switch your mistake to "internet slang."
OMG, I did not know internet slang had rules. TG, the grammar skool kops will keep us straight.
BTW 2/10

Finally! The "deer Karen Goucher" meme is simply an amusing part of the Letsrun collective consciousness! It's a joke, along with "Pics?", "powerpoint presentation", "is Paula Radcliffe update", "ever heard of Evan Jager" and "I'm outta here, life's too short, I'll be in Kona, hope to see some of you there, Paolo knows where to find me" and "Teg doesn't run the 10k" and the many others.
Does this even have to be explained?

I think he was mocking you, not using "Deer" as "hey, you." "Your dumb" might be the same thing, using bad English to point out how dumb you are to use "deer" this way.
Oh frickin come one you sound like this stuffed ass English teacher at my school that no one likes.
We say go to Leagues, sectionals, states, regionals, nationals, Olympics, whatever. Everyone knows what we mean and it's all ok.

They're not rules... just common sense, you idiot.

Footlocker is not a state, so it's not like you're using the proper noun for a geographical region.
It's still a proper fucking noun.

Winner!
If you accuse someone of a grammar error for using "deer so-and-so" in place of "dear so-and-so" on letsrun, you are simply ignorant of a letsrun joke.
It is clearly Footlocker. If you put an s on it it sounds retarded. "lets go to footlocker!" vs "lets go to footlockers!" the 2nd implies theres a few of them and that its not special. and sounds stupid. yeah.
States works thought because its a short word so it soudns right, and not a proper one, so it is grammtically correct in my eyes. (the only eyes that matter)
Footlocker
Nationals
Regionals
Worlds
Olympics
Sectionals
Districts
Conference
State.
