[quote=Anonymous]Are you kidding me? Informal dropping of "g" in "ing" is OK but as an everyday, all-the-time thing IMO it marks you as a rube, a slovenly user of the English language, one who doesn't care if they sound like they know what they're talking (or talkin') about... I particularly hate the phony folksiness of people I have worked with in senior managment positions who will put on the informal leveler of dropping "g"s... I mean droppin' "g"s when they're talkin' to folks, etc., etc. You're either a troll, a non-native English speaker, or a linguistic slob, lol.[/quote]
