Random Grammar - it seems the world has lost the plot, and there are sadly no longer any standards deemed worth upholding. The errors are random, ubiquitous and not limited to the allegedly 'uneducated'. In fact, it's the broadcasters and publishers who fill me with more disgust, for they promote the uselessness and the decline in standards. No wonder that ordinary people now soak up errors and don't recognise them as such. Sometimes it's the complete codswallop that overrides any concerns regarding the grammar.

"The TV it's self is slim. With lot's of connections it comes with a inferred extension."
"I opted for the 46" model and the extra real estate of screen really shines through."

"Germany have named two identical twins in midfield." The commentator wanted to emphasise, it seems, that only two of the twins were present!
"Some of the quality of the goals were outstanding." Mark Hughes talking bollocks.
"No team have lost fewer games than Everton." Gary Lineker; no, you're right - it haven't!
General online, radio and TV shit.
"These set of pictures say a lot more." Sue Connolly on BBC2.
"To who do we give it?" Moron on Radio 2.
"Totally unrelevantly to the story." Television twat.
"The 10 bizarre phenomenon that still have scientists baffled." Mail Online headline.
" . . with the church service culminating a day of remembrance." Charlene White on ITV News talking rubbish.
"It awoken a joy in me." Deborah Meaden making a hash of explaining her feelings.
