You'd think they'd get the URL right on the front of a magazine for pedants, for goodness sake. 🙁

To be fair I believe that the Shcool sign is in the Netherlands and is of course correct as a result.

I don't understand why the whole English speaking world has recently decided to try and sound like a McDonalds advert or Jo Whiley.

[quote=teethgrinder ]Grammatical errors literally boil my piss.

That's a legitimate use of the word now. The definition has changed in the Oxford Dictionary!

I once had someone tell me a story about how their friend pulled out of a dangerous junction and got hit by an argonaut.

"Them", instead of "those". As in, "Look at them trees". It's not bloody difficult.

Ah......

So it's all hugs and kisses when a member of singletrack royalty starts a thread about poor use of language, but when anyone else dares to venture an opinion it is 'bullying'.

Nice to know that it's not what you know, but who you know - even on here!

Grate thread, best for a wile.

Can we include gratuitous glottal stops too, literally the worst thing ever.

Well done to him, Cougar. That silent 'e' often catches people out!

The addition of the word 'actually' in sentences. You're just adding an extra word for no reason.

We had someone place a big order of ashfelt for a carpark the other day. He also argues that his company is PRINCESS 2 certified.

Local vernacular in sunny Portsmouth when voicing approval of something: " Oi likes that Oi doose" 🙂

Definitely don't have to literally love them. 🙂
