Giant billboards, advertisements, it's everywhere. It discredits the company or magazine being represented. Kudos to you, Deb. There's a great book called "Doing Our Own Thing: The Degradation of Language and Music and Why We Should, Like, Care" by John McWhorter. He nails it on the head.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07295536145397294959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5536091631921248431.post-31928609931891842182009-06-26T19:46:13.857-05:002009-06-26T19:46:13.857-05:00Oh Diane!

I feel another episode coming on...<br /><br />I wrote a goofy post when I had to place my psychotic cat and got hate mail from some, um, person who thought I was trying to sell a cat for $5,000. One of my faves was a post from a lady who said "I can't have puppies." REALLY? I don't like imagining her efforts, either.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14831958648236444729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5536091631921248431.post-60515620280556374752009-06-26T18:34:20.667-05:002009-06-26T18:34:20.667-05:00I'm still laughing.

Bad grammar + horrible tempers (the pet listings can get quite volatile at times)= Nasty headache.Diane J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06638568994448668008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5536091631921248431.post-90525957108955057522009-06-23T20:31:24.101-05:002009-06-23T20:31:24.101-05:00Deb, I want to comment that I LOL at this blog.
