I bet this really annoy's you if your a grammar freak

I get annoyed enough with small places misusing apostrophes, but a huge corporation that spends more on advertising than most of us make in a year?

 

ah its sweet

 

The apostrophe mistake is a wonder. Saw one at work the other day, again some company or other. Can't remember it now but it was printed on the side of a truck for the whole world to see. I'm pretty sure it had a wrong one and a right one in the same sentence.

What's more annoying to me there is the cheek of McDonald's talking 'bout renaming days of the week! Just who the fuck...

 

huh? not seen this what are they up 2?

 

*pulls out notebook*

note to self: Thursday is now Sweet Chilli Chicken Deli Day

*puts notebook back in pocket*

Thanks for the heads up!!

 

just read the first post dude.

 

woopsie my bad lol

 

My primary school has a sign on the gate saying "pupil's entrance" which always annoys me.

Also i hate when people get it's/its your/you're there/their mixed up. It's not difficult.

 

Never underestimate the damage that can be done by a rampant, unfettered apostrophe... they can be dangerous....

but to me, grammar is like sex.. .sometimes yer have to bend it a little to make it work right!

and i want a sweet chilli chicken wotsit...

 

Ah now it can be sometimes you no.

 

leave it to mcdonalds to be so ignorant...or sorry...would it be mcdonald's?

hehehehe

 

The more I look at it, the more it annoys me.

 

In that case, prepare yourself for the overwhelming urge to hit me in the face!



Here it comes...

I actually collect pictures like this one. I'm planning to compile a book of the buggers and seeing if any bugger would consider publishing it. :tongue:

 

...That one can't possibly be in any English-speaking country.

 

You're half-right. It's in my hometown of Pontefract.

(edit) if I do compile that book, do you mind if I mentioned that quote? I'll credit you or whatever in the slim chances it gets published :tongue:

 

You should see www.engrish.com, I almost wet myself!

 

omg teh horrorz

:tongue:

all this just further seems to prove how stupid people are becoming/have become.
doesn't anyone know actual grammar anymore? and how to speak the english language properly?

it's (used properly) further proof that governments need to spend more of their resources on education and less on invading other countries.

 

wait until you see glaring mistakes in your child's school newletters. *sigh*

 

there's a pottery shop in Brighton that has a ceramic sign inviting mum's [sic] and dad's [sic] to have their babies [sic] name on a piece of pottery ...

and yes Power_13, I'm sure someone would publish that book

 

Could you do me a favour and get a pic of that? I'm seriously thinking about that book idea now, I think it could be awesome
