Not to mention the fact that they’re grammer stinks. Yes, I did that on purpose.

So, today, I’d like to provide you poor, unfortunate bloggers with an English lesson.

English for Grammar Challenged Bloggers

People seem to have a problem with loosing things, instead of losing them. Here’s how this works.

Someone who is going crazy is losing his mind.

Someone who uses the word loosing instead of losing is a complete idiot.

See how that works? Let’s try another. Plural means more than one of something. Possessive means having or owning something.  Apostrophes are used for the possessive form, not plural form.

Let’s go down to the sports bar and have a drink.

If you use an apostrophe after the word sports’ again, I’m going to kill you.

Contractions are two words smooshed together and made smaller, with an apostrophe. Some people seem to confuse these words with others that sound the same (these are called soundthesameanyms.)

Hey Bob, you’re looking quite spiffy today!

Hey Bob, your email to me contained so many grammatical errors that it gave me the urge to go to your house and put your dog in your microwave!

So please, bloggers, learn how to do you’re English good.

Picture of the Day 

This is Hollywood boulevard at 11pm on a Friday night. What all these people were doing, I have no idea.
