What bad grammar would you like banned on here?

and should of, totally agree.

People who type 'loose' when they mean 'lose'.

I dont know why but it always makes me seeth a little.

folk who post tosh on the bentfair forum

Stop being ageist!

I would like all of the censorship removed to be honest. Banning things is ***** * ** * * **** **** *****, imo.

It's instead of its and its instead of it's.

I despair when ppl continually use their, there and they`re incorerectly. thats how sad I am.

.....I'd like to see the recalcitrant grandfathers given the same type of treatment too!

Yeah but no but

Language eternally evolves. Dont kick against the pri*ks - unless you want a coronary.

Schoolteacher to little boy...Your Grammar is absolutely $hite (its a scouse school)
little by to schooteacher....If thats the case then.. your Grandads a tw4t

Language eternally evolves.

Always used by the illiterate this excuse.

Like the sign in my local advertising ''pizza's''. FFS, why is it so difficult to get your head round the concept of plurals and possessives?

Because you can't be bothered and would rather spout tosh about language evolving?

There's an estate agent here with the name Cyprus Property's signwritten over their office.
Makes me cringe with double embarrassment for them every time I see it.

I went to a football club one day,
The club mascot was a Lion.
so the toilets where
'LION"
and
"LIONESS'S"

I still treasure the photograph which I took, outside a pub, a few years back.

The advertising board on the pavement said....... "FOOD NOW BEEN SERVED"...........

I bet they did fantastic business that lunch time!

lol - that's a grate won

I know it's not on here but does my head in when some t!t in the pub says 'Can I get a pint of lager please?'
Can I get? Can I get? ffs! What, do you want to serve yourself? What's wrong with saying 'A pint of lager please'?

Then there are those who say....."he borrowed it to me"!

pawn shop add in OZ

"You can loan against your goods"

"YOU KNOW""

"I went to the Pub, you know, and sally was there, you know and she sat down next to me you know"

Please don't waste my time telling me something I already fking know !!

I agree. Fcking annoying. You hear what I'm saying?

'I was, like, really scared'

You were like scared - so not actually scared then

What bad grammar would you like banned on here?

Unspoken and presumed words.

For instance in the above sentence I would have inserted "to be" as in "like to be banned".

I would, also, like pedants banned, I mean to be banned.:)

Can't stand people who say 'yeah' at the end of every sentence.

heard a woman on the radio the other day commenting that her business literally fell off a cliff in the recession. I thought, oh, poor lady until the truth came out.

Wouldn't it have 'actually' fallen off a cliff rather than 'literally' or did she mean someone wrote about it falling of the cliff?

Was that the lady who ran the tea rooms just outside Dover?

Yes, the 'get' thing is an unwanted Americanism.

''Can I get a cup of coffee''?

No, but you could GET yourself shot in the face you dipstick.

the business didn't literally do anything!

=========================================================

People that spell incorrectly incorrectly irritate me!!

'Offician' winds me up somewhat

I am reading a book on poker and I am appalled at thier misuse of 'there' instead of their. There are also a couple of spelling mistakes.

Poker Books? The're full of errors. There's one over there in my living-room which belongs to my housemates. Well I think its theirs, anyway....

lol, spirit

like and innit

Happy nu year

Amazing that a proper, published book would have grammar and spelling mistakes. I thought the big publishing companies all hired prove readers these days.

Yeah,but then how many people can speak correct English in the first place ? i will tell you .

No one.

So i wouldn't stress about it to much

too * :)

Over Christmas there was a sign near us offering "Xmas Trees and Holly Reeves for Sale"

American woman in motorway service station " I need a coffee and a muffin". Or what was going to happen?

People who say brought instead of bought. ffs.

Good sign I saw in Bristol:

WASHING MACHINGS FOR SALE

My missus says 'comatosed' rather than 'comatose'. Pulled her up on it today.

Think I'm in the spare room tonight.

It was altered a few dats later to:

WASHINE MACHINGS FOR SALE

days*.... :)

Hello Maria! long time no see!

Yer Man - I can spell, I just cant type...

...and as for ending a sentence with a preposition, well you know where you can stuff that up into.

Saw a sign in a shop the other day 'We do not take credit cards has payment'.

The strange use of the word "regular" to mean not large.

ironic thread

'which bad grammar would you like banned' imo

my mate's grammar is particularly bad .........

she's been banned 3 times for shoplifting from Tescos !

My mate's spelling is atrocious - he went in to shoplift and got arrested for shirtlifting.

idiots who talk about people being "destroyed" rather than "distraught" , after a traumatic experience...silly tw ats ...

"YOU KNOW""

"I went to the Pub, you know, and sally was there, you know and she sat down next to me you know"



Similar thing with "yeah, like he says to me right like are you coming out so I says to him yeah" etc.
I have even told my daughter to only send me emails if they are correct.
Maybe I have the problem.
Oh No thats like so bad yeah

doesn't bother me, just find it amusing, some spelling mistakes like, Steak instead of Stake.
