Grammar strikes again!!
Oh, and new clicky, a personal fave:
.
I really wish I had noticed the grammar mistakes quicker. =/
i guess that means you fail too?
thats the way to misspell on an epic scale..
No, that’s the way to misspell on an epic scale.
Owned, shado0w.
No, tat’s the way to mispell on an epic scale.
I would HAVE never noticed. I hate that one; I saw it on the CNN scrolling marquee once.
I would of never noticed!
*smooch!*
Me neither!.
your sure of that?
YOU’RE sure of that?
Are you sure of that?
AHHH GRAMMAR NAZIS! THEY MIGHT ELIMINATE THE ILLITARA-JEWS!
Argh. Grammar Nazis! They might eliminate the Illitara-Jews.
you mean “I never would’ve noticed?”
*smoochsqueezesmooch*
.
You’re not a grammar nazi. I would’ve noticed but not had my ‘failworthy’ hat on at the time.
psst …. Brewski … It’s “I would HAVE never noticed!”
*facepalm*
Why do you think I said it that way? Where is you’re sense of humor?
Your not making any sense Brewski. Now get you’re buns back in bed!!!
before granny GETS you
granny keep your paws off my brewski – at least for today. It’s my birthday tomorrow afterall.
*walks in wearing a bow*
I have your present! Are you gonna unwrap it?
Oh well HELLO THERE!! You betcha I will … and I won’t be using my fingers to unwrap it either…
She’ll be using YOUR fingers Jenny.
But…Jenny is a can or yams! She doesn’t have fingers!
*runs away w/ fingers tucked neatly in can*
*snerk* I know that! I was being silly! *squeeze*
“Where is YOUR sense of humor?”
I believe that’s what you mean.
XD
psst…zippy, it’s “I wouldn’t have never noticed nothin.” (Maybe we should cut this out. I don’t want to be the reason DW has an aneurism when she gets on.)
Please also note incorrect amendment above it!
Squiggle is not a word!
Squiggle is TOO a word! it was the word i spelled correctly in the first round of the regional spelling bee in third grade.
Also, Good morning everyone
According to my Oxford dictionary:
squiggle: n. short curly line, esp. in handwriting or doodling. v. make such lines.
Plus, it was my nickname for my little girl when she was a baby.
I can’t read it. My laptop screen isn’t much.
A new dance!
*Squiggle~squiggle~squiggle*
I would *have* never noticed.
oof! late to the party.
I guess me too, haha!
would *have* never noticed.
No, Brewski…you would have never noticed!
No, you would HAVE never noticed.
“I would of never noticed!”
Do you mean that you would HAVE never noticed?
would HAVE
Don’t you mean “would have”?
I would HAVE never noticed, actually.
*gives a cookie for not invoking the Ordinal Post Rule*
Thanks!
.
*skitters off in search of a glass of milk*
*pours a glass of milk for velvet*
*squeeze*
*squeezes lefty and zippy*
.
You guys are the best!
*shows up with coffee and cinnamon rolls*
It’s still early enough here, I need a good breakfast.
Jimbo to the rescue!
Thanks.
Oh honey I am from ‘THE SOUTH’. Makes a real breakfast for the gang.
Let’s see we have eggs, sausage (round and flat), fried bacon, biscuits, pancakes, toast, grits w/ butter, grits w/ cheese, hashbrown casserole, coffee cake, OJ Simpson, sweet tea, and coffee with Coffee Kareem Abdul Jabar. and butter.
*sets down giant bottle of maple syrup to go over…. everything*
WOW! I’ll have just a touch of everything, please!
mmmmm That sounds yummy. Can I get some extra Kareem for my coffee? Just a dribble.
Honey, I’m from the Midwest. I challenge you to a breakfast war!
*gets his Mom*
*has her make homemade cinnamon rolls from scratch, cathead biscuits from scratch, sausage gravy, sausage patties (locally grown meat), eggs (fried and scrambled, locally grown), waffles and pancakes from scratch, honey, blackberry jam, real butter, coffee, whole milk (from local cows, unpasteurized because it’s fresh), and both regular bacon and canadian bacon.*
*looks from Jenny’s breakfast to Jimbo’s breakfast*
*takes some of each*
Yum! Thanks Jenny, thanks Jimbob Earl’s mom!
Hey, wait a minute, you guys – no croissants???
no croissants unless you are okay with pillsbury or Williams sonoma mail order.
*giggles* We have fresh stuff here too. Even Amish cheese for the grits. And butter is always real butter. There ain’t no chemicals in my butter.
Do you use a butter bell Jimbo?
OJ Simpson…hehe ill take some OJ
Their/ They’re are both fine though. “Their” just has a slightly different meaning than intended.
Perhaps this is a deliberate construction—”their” could be a possessive pronoun modifying the noun “learning.” If such is the case, these games would serve to void existent knowledge. Seeing as this seems to be the function of most video games, this just might be one of the more accurate and honest ads out there!
That’s how i like my education, mindless.
I wouldn’t have it any other way.
*headdesk*
*places pillows on BFF’s desk*
*puts a mint on the pillow*
*wakes up suddenly, feeling something gooey on cheek*
Eeeew…what is this…BROWN?! AARGHHHH!!!
*jumps up, and sprints shrieking out of the room*
All is right with the world.
*sighs contentedly*
Does that mean you’re naked??
*hopeful*
I was just content to see BFF again, and doing his BFF thing. But I guess it would help if I wasn’t clothed…
So, when do you fly home, Brewski?
*makes sure camera is in good working order*
I am hoping Brewski will let me sit with him on the flight back. That suitcase…
I’ve seen horrible things in there.
Well, okay, you can sit on my lap! You may be short, but I don’t think you’re short enough to pass for an infant. So I can’t make any guarantees.
I’m leaving Sunday. I guess I’ll tag along with an associate from Taiwan tomorrow… he’s going shopping.
Hey, gang, Brewski’s going shopping tomorrow and buying us all souvenirs! He’s such a sweetie!
Fortune cookies, all around!
Unfortunately, one has to go the US to find those.
F’real???
Why did I hear scary ‘Dun-dun-dun’ music after “he’s going shopping.”
I am.
Gordon Brown was sitting on your desk?
I understand your terror.
Ahhh, that’s better.
Zzzzz…
Mojo Jojo must have sabotaged the sign. It’s the only sensible possibility.
It might have been…Him!
Dun Dun Dunnnn!
Mo-jo JOJO!
*squeeze and sniff*
The infamous THEY’RE / THEIR / THEIRS … why can’t anyone get it right? I see people at work who make the same mistakes.
Tch. It’s the Their/They’re/There error. Can’t you get it right?
*squeeze*
Their, their. Its okay. She should of said “there”, write?
There, there, they’re ok. Their there’s were just mixed up.
Eye suppose sew.
Its a disgrace.
Its a abomination.
It’s an aberration.
It’s an apparition.
It’s viewed with apprehension.
It’s viewed in Technicolour.
pppssshhhh Their hear…
(ha ha)
It was viewed by technology.
You left THERE out of the list. LOL!
.
Here’s my version of the rule: if it makes sense to say ‘they are’ then use they’re; otherwise use their to refer to a person or there to refer to a place.
English is not my first language and it makes sense to me. What is what’s her face’s excuse? *glowers @ person in cube across*
These things all have simple rules. Should I say (name) and I, or (name) and me? Ask yourself if you would use I if the other person wasn’t referred to. “Bob and I went to the beach.” Is “I went to the beach,” if I take out Bob. “What happened to Bob and me was terrible.” Is “What happened to me was terrible.” There is a simply rule for to/too also. Too=also.
*head spinning*
I need a stiff drink.
*hands Leila a double shot of tequila, a slice of lime, and the salt shaker*
*shakes salt and throws it behind her for good luck and downs tequila*
Oh yeah!!!
Ouch! Hey! Careful where you throw that salt shaker!
*hears a redneck behind him yell, “kick ‘is ass, seabass!”*
Seabass… pronounced Sea-Bass. Like the instrument.
That always confused me. Is that where we get Bass guitars from? The ocean? OH GOD THIS EXPLAINS WHY THEY ARE ALWAYS BLUE.
One extra-stiff cuba libre! Here ya go.
*hands drink*
I don’t know what that is but I am having it anyway. Thank you. *smooch*
*drinks cuba libre in one gulp*
*hic*
Rum and coke, silly! *smooch*
Whew! That was a stiff one, wasn’t it?
I thought it was a goat sucker!
Damn my sightless eyes.
Goat sucker? *looks for Arthur*
*hands Brewski a new TWSS button*
That old one was gettin a little quiet. This one should get you up.
Thanks Jimbo!
*hands Jimbo a Tsingtao*
Sorry, best I can do under the circumstances.
*drains Tsingtao*
Best you can whaa…..zzzzz
You took out Bob? Did you boys have a good time?
Ya’ll know what, we did! Bob done forgot his sunscreen though, so I is callin’ him Lobster Bob! I thought that was right funny, but I think he got a little heated…
*hearty guffaw*
I decided to let my inner redneck out today. I usually keep him in check by watching a tractor pull or the NASCAR truck series, but this fail worked him up.
Dern tootin! Ain’t nuttin better than a good truck race and a beer. *spits* Want some chew? *offers*
Don’tcha mean “chaw?”
*two teeth grin*
I thought ‘he took out Bob’ meant that Bob will be swimming with the fishes.
me need two
Another way to look at it:
They’re – “they are”
there = (t)here – place (refers to location, i.e. here and there)
their = (t)heir – refers to possesion, an “heir” inherits (and therefore possesses) things left to them.
This was an intelligent post. I hope we don’t have to go without you much longer.
*fluffs up pillows*
In honour of absent friends, I declare the cuddle puddle open!
*squeezes to all*
*Backflips in*
*Slowly sinks in as to not injure my knee further.*
*tunnels in from opposite side of planet*
Would you like a spinal? You won’t feel a thing from the waist down! It tends to…er…hinder your sex life a bit though.
*sneaks out of work to join cuddle puddle*
*gentle therapeutic squeezes for WIK*

*squeezes WN, Katz, and Leila*
I’ve been stuck working, but I suppose that’s what they pay me for.
*SQUEEEEZES* back, and nods knowingly about the “work” thing…
ZOMG!!!!!!!!
*wearing only feathers, takes a running jump into the puddle and cuddles up to Moomin*
*tickles Leila with feathers*
*stuffs pillow with feathers*
Thanks Leila, my pillow was getting a bit flat!
Much better…
You keep that up, Leila, and gaynorvader is going to be naked!
I can only grow back one scale per hour you know!
Ya know, Gaynor is starting to look pretty bald. I think he’s gonna need a Donald-Trump-style dragon-scale combover.
That’s hot!
*giggles*
Heeeeeeeeee!!!!!!
*travels back in time and joins cuddle puddle*
*snuggles in next to Velvet, Brewski, Moomin and Leila*
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…….
It’s Katz! *tackles*
Oommpf! *catches breath*

*backs up, runs full speed and leaps into puddle*
Bonzai!!!
Morning squeezes to all failpeeps!
Judy!!! *squeeze*
I still love the blue on you. Did you see my name? I am still waiting …
*squeezes* to Leila and Velvet!
Hi Judy!! *squeeze*
What’s with the hesitation? Just jump in with complete disregard for safety! It’s the failblog way!
Sorry, Velvet, it won’t happen again!
No worries, mate!
.
Did you check the new clicky? I know you’re a fan.
Youtube isn’t working again tonight!
And I’m so tired I can’t even see straight. I think it’s time to log off very soon…
*fumbles for toothbrush*
*gives velvet and judy several goodnight smooches*
*smooch*
.
G’nite, sweetie.
Same back at ya, cutie!
*smoochies* and a *quick snuggle*
*squeezes Judy, Brewski, and Velvet*
I did watch it, velvet. It was so sad! They all wanted someone they could not have, and no one had a date for the prom. The teenage years can be so tough!
Are saber toothed nut gathering squirrels allowed in?
Of course!!! Leave your nuts over there
before you get in.
Yea!!!
*removes nuts*
*hides nuts in dark corner*
*dives in tail first*
I would join, but the mister mistress is getting restless alone.
See you all later!
*byesqueeze*
What is this cuddle puddle you speak of? Does it take away the pain of seeing such a bad fail? I worry for our children’s futures.
Follow me …
*shows zippycat cuddle puddle and pushes her/him into it*
Won’t hurt … it’s full of feathers.
*cuddlesqueezes* To Everyone!!!
*basking in cuddly niceness & slides in deeper*
Mmmmmmm……
Ooooooohhh, I like this cuddle puddle! (and i’m a her, btw)
Would anyone mind if I bring my stuffed aminals? They really help with the cuddling! I’ll share!
It’s a puddle of people full of cuddles. Like a group hug, only messier.
It’s not a puddle of cuddles unless the buddle that is Cuddles cuddles in the muddle.
*squeezes all in the Cuddleless puddle*
Do not befuddle the cuddle puddle, you’ll get us in a muddle. We should form a huddle to discuss the finer points.
*puddles the huddle to cuddle*
*sigh*
I had a really long rhyming reply and I lost it cos I pressed the wrong damned key.
*squeezes*
*posts sign*
Please do not piddle in our cuddle puddle.
Welcome to our uddle. Notice there is no P in it – please keep it that way!
*snork!*
I don’t cuddle in your potty – so please don’t piddle in our puddle.
*puts on ducky ring*
*inflates breasts to 200PSI*
helmet?

*jumps in but all the cuddlers jump out!*
I’ll never get it right!?
*cuddles w granny*

Those are some impressively firm breasts, granny!
*Dips feet in Cuddle Puddle.*

*Places Balsamic vinegar and strawberries on the side*
*dumps the whole thing and eats chocolate cake*
Mmmphf …What!?
I like your style, Katz!
Thanks, Judy! Have some cake?
*squeezes Judy and gives her cake*
LOL – GF’s youngest daughter made cake after midnight, apparently, in her apartment she shares wif her older sister. Was accompanied in the endeavor by another quite inebriated friend.
Results, as I understand, were spectacular; at least as far as wiped out ovens go…
Some people tend to use the smoke alarm as an oven timer.
Did they get to meet some hunky firemen?
*edges away from your bonersalad.*
Why caps each word too? Are we giong back in time to Pokemon?
Back? It Never Went Away!
So true…. so true….
I missed that
*supersqueeze*
As I have said before my mind works strangely..I would not expect many to guess what was going on in there!
I understood, k@. My granddaughter loves pokemon. Gotta catch ‘em all!
I’m still trying to catch them all on the third game.
*hides*
Me too moomin … it’s ok.
*shows moomin her shaymin*
I’m playing Pokemon Pearl (or is it Diamond???) — or was until I got hooked on solitaire on my DS.
Video games are often so much more fun than real life.
You won’t caps me! I’m too smart!
Thats So True
What do you have against Pokémon?
Great Jamaican proctologist.
*cough*
Read the small print!
I’m sorry, but I don’t understand the relevance of your proctologist.
Oh, I loaded the page before you posted the small print, K@, so I didn’t see it. It takes time to read that far from the top.
Awesome
For the record I don’t hate you or your kind!
Yay! I feel not hated now! It is so good to not be hated!
Use is alweigh melcomed heire. meowth.
Thankies! It’s great to feel melcomed… Wait, what?
*squeeze*
Meowth was always one of my favorite Pokémon. (Or as my daughter called it then – Potekmon. What can I say? She was 2.)
*Squeeze*
I’m glad you enjoyed my hijinks! I am one of the few Pokémon who ever bothered to learn English.
*snork!*
Thank you Avis for getting it.
*squeeze* How could I not?
BTW, happy early birthday!
Thank you!!
…? Is this a reference to a previous Fail? If so, I don’t recognize it.
Nope, it’s not. Give it some time, you’ll get it.
Meowth, it helps to think in an accent.
What kind of accent? I didn’t get it either.
Jamakermon!
Thanks. Work has killed my brain.
*squeezes Jam*
Lack of work has killed mine.
*Lurksqueeze*
Maybe it is just too hot in here, but the only Jamaican I can think of is Cool Runnings… How do you say proctologist with a Jamaican accent?
That’s what I was doing, too, Meowth. No wonder we didn’t get it.
*snerk* I got it too … poke a mon!
Thanks, ZC. I guess my brain’s just not right today.
Oh… OH! So you say Pokémon with the accent! I get it now. Ha ha ha!
Now I know where those kids with the severe grammar problems come from. Is it a new trend?
I’m afraid it is. It’s spreading in two forms: “Txt spk” and “1337 speak”.
I blame uncorrected phonetic spelling too. (Not lolseak, that’s just creative. Though it does give me a headache.)
And it’s EVERYWHERE! Diet Rite for example. If it’s everywhere kids look (including their own cupboards), how can we expect them to know better?
I didn’t know how to spell through until I was 18 because of the DoT.
The what?
Department of Transportation, using thru instead of through.
Ah, got it. I think McDonald’s does the same thing.
In other words, their learning will never be known. Got it.
There’s nothing wrong with the sentence! They’ll just never know their learning (as in, they won’t be aware of what they have learned!).
… but if they haven’t learned it, what good did it do?
This makes my pockets hurt.
Whats the problem? I never knew my learning either.
Kids these days, and they’re new fangled lerning.
I can speak proper English, me!
*adjusts dunce hat*
My pa done learned me how.
I talk good Spinglish.
Incest is illegal???
What’s even worse is that none of the many people at the office who made that sign didn’t realize the error. I’ve seen third graders who can use the proper form. What is this world coming to?
So you’re saying that all of the many people at the office DID realize it?
I suspect that that is prezackly what Scawt meant, if unintentionally…
ROTFLMAO
Time to shower. Have to go! Oh, and If anyone requests me on myspace/facebook and it’s not a recognizable failname, don’t get surprised when denied. Thanks and Good day all!
That’s why you send a message with your requests, silly heads.
I know right? or at least use the same name or avatar or something? Even lurkers could just say: “I’m a lurker” that would work too. maybe. I don’t want to be trolled.
I usually fling custard at people from here *hopes that is enough of a clue*
I’ve had a cunning plan. . .
as cunning as a fox who is professor of cunning at cunning university?
It’s so cunning you could brush your teeth with it.
so cunning you could pin a tail on it and call it a weasel?
*squeasle!*
I thought he was a linquist?
Indeed he is; and skilled, at that.
*squeeze* Hi, WN! Lunch break?
Nah – break. ‘Tis nearly 9:30 here…

Here, I was ready for you. All yours.
Awww. Thanks! Am I that predictable?
Nah. We have to have our indulgences every now and again.
Great cake, Leila, thanks!
Hey, do we get to play “guess the age” for you like we did with Chani???
You can try. I get to pick the one I like the most however.
*wishes Leila a happy birthday, complete with rib crushing bear hug*
I guess 21.
Ouch!!! *out of breath* Best.Hug.Ever.Jimbo. Thanks for the bday wishes!
21? Really?
Yep, ’cause you couldn’t be older than 18, but you drink. The drinking age round these parts is 21, so I guessed that.
HeHe!!
I’m going with 29. Not quite thirty, but still young enough to charm the young men.
Babs Windsor is knocking on a bit and she can still charm the young men.
Happy BD. I’ll shine a “special” nut up for you.
A nut? Just for me? Eeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!
You bet and it is a veeerrryyy special nut. It has little sparkly thingys all over the cap.

I am not in FB on weekends so I decided to be selfish and get my bday squeezes one day ahead.

Why isn’t this right? Couldn’t it mean something like “they won’t even notice “”the learning of them”"”.
Singular:
He won’t even notice his learning.
Or is this crappy english?
Yes, it is.
they’ll learn you real good
My childron is smahrt. We done stoled dem dere games last weak. :notsotoothygrin:

Anytime. *squeeze* Have a great Birthday, Leila! If you’re good maybe Brewski will let you join the mile-high-club with him.
He offered to let me sit on his lap on the trip back home.
…and thank you for the bday wishes.
You guys can talk about the first thing that pops up.
Yellow paint? Aw man, I just wanted the colo(u)r yellow! Thanks anyway though!

LOL! even harder than pedobear
i before e except after c
I kum b4 E does.
You are CErtaInly a lucky lucky lady!
Girls can kum too??
I saw a license plate cover last night that said, “Look out, here she cumz!”
I seriously wonder if she knew what she was doing when she decided to abbreviate…I live in a conservative area so I doubt it.
*snork!*
I can’t believe it went past the DMV.
Not a license plate, just the cover. You know, the part that goes around the plate.
*squeeze*
I get it now.
*squeeze*
*goes to dunce corner*
Starfish, it’s all a LIE!!! We really don’t. We are on earth for one thing only, to please our men and make sure they kum.
Really?! Because I heard different!
What did you hear verbatim? I want names too.
Whew!!! You had me going there for a second. Good one. Boy I would have looked dumb trying to please my wife. She would have been like “shouldn’t you be sleeping by now.”
It’s all about you my friend.
Except in special words, such as “Their” and “Weird.”
Oh, and “Neighbor.”
Neither as well.
…and in words that say /ay/,
such as “neighbor” and “weigh.”
What’s the fail there? The word “their” is fully correct. Or am I missing some other detail?
This fail is a FAIL.
Whilst I know that most of you retards presume that “they’re” is the correct variant in this case, the possessive use of their IS valid in this instance.
Once can be well aware of their learning.
This ‘grammar fail’ is born of you idiots not actually understanding the myriad definitions of ‘learning’.
FAIL FAIL.
Thank you Professor Foo.
*squeeze*
Children, thank the professor.
*chants*
Thank you Professer.
Leila, I’m afraid we’re gonna have to temporarily postpone the painting session – you available next week?
PS – Foo on you, Foo’!
PPS – Same thing to Once, wherever they may be…
WN, I knew you would be a Foo fighter.
Don’t wanna be your monkey wrench…
Once can be well aware of their learning?
Since Once is capitalized it might indicate a proper name. Perhaps Foo knows a “Once” and Once can be well aware of their learning.
That must be the case because he would look very silly calling the entire blog retarded idiots whilst making an error like that.
Assuming “Once” to be a proper noun, Once can be aware of his, her or its learning.
You assume Once is a singular proper noun. Once might refer to a group of individuals collective known as Once and they are well aware of their learning.
…collectively?
*sings* “Lolly’s, Lolly’s, Lolly’s, get your adverbs here…”
Maybe it’s some grammar term that we wouldn’t understand.
Close, but no cigar, yes one can “possess a learning”, but it’s not said like that. One is said to be “learned”. So the grammar is still incorrect. You might also be aware of your “schooling”, but again in is not correct grammar to refer to it as “learning” in this way! Sorry!
weis not retards weis smartin people hey is that a ball………
*tries to restrain herself*
*fails*
*Does her best Mr. T voice*
I pity the Foo that calls this a fail fail!
Um … no. If they don’t know their learning, they haven’t learned it. If they don’t know they’re learning, they’re still learning only without realizing it.
The fail in this case is for saying this is a grammar error. Learning can also be a noun and the possessive “their” here might be to note that one will forget what they have been taught because of excessive fun. For instance, “When it comes to grammar, most people ignore their learning”. This is a case of perhaps improperly inferring speaker meaning. You cannot know by reading the sign what the proper use of their/they’re should be. On the other hand, “there” would always be incorrect in such a context. Com’n people use your imagination and give others some credit.
Are you saying their is no fail?
I think what he means is it should be called “Ambiguity Fail” or something along those lines. But what’s in a name?
Com’n people? An abbreviation, perchance, for “common people”? Perhaps a local idiom? An Obama-ism for the masses of little people?
*come on* Sorry about the strange abbreviation.
*whispers* I think he must have meant “c’mon…”
Their is no fail!
The cake is a lie!
Nyahahaha!
I’m dizzy and lucky is scary.
If they don’t know their learning, it has benefited them naught. On the other hand, if they don’t know they are learning, that’s not to say they aren’t learning anything. IMHO.
Some people manage to bend over backwards and bark up the wrong tree. Like a sick dog with acrobatic skills – kind of cool, no?
Kudos to Soylent, who managed to highlight his/her own absurdity. It simply is not reasonable to think that this sales pitch would claim that “one will for get what they [sic] have been taught because of excessive fun.” That’s not much of a sales pitch. Soylen’ts fail is rooted in giving the benefit of the doubt where none is due.
Rogue Spear ftw.
:monkey:
NOOOOOOOO. Monkey!
:monkey: went to live on a farm with a very nice old couple, but we got you a new pet!
Woof! Bark!
His name is Lucky! C’mere boy!
:lucky: ?
sux innit
Lucky is : evil : (remove spaces)
They may not know THEIR learning, but I certainly know MY learning…we’re like BFFs…
I’m bothered most by the 2 that are indicated in the photo, but I can’t be the only one who’s bothered by all the capitalization and the lack of a punctuation mark. This message is just fine written this way: “So much fun, they won’t even know they’re learning!” The lacking “much” is actually not that important, compared to this needless, habitual branding of signage. (The capitalization makes it look like a brand name, but that commonly used tactic should be applied to brand names, not sales pitches.)
…Yes, I am an over-serious language critique. I hate 99% of the American riff-raff I see.
Technically, I should have used the word “two” instead of the numeral. Sorry, modern age habit. There are other errors in my comments, if you can spot them!
dis fail sux big time it iz lame as nethin i az eva seen. an u lot tlk so much crap bout it tiz unreel dis iz reel life ppl their downt matta.
I think you may need that programme…
I’m sure you’re trying to say something intelligent and profound here, but I can’t understand any of it. It looks like you dumped a bunch of scrabble letters all over the place.
*Squeezes all FB friends*
AND
Happy Birthday Early Leila

*holds on and flies up to the cuddle puddle*
*lands in the middle and releases Boobie Traps*
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! *sploosh*
My learning has changed so much, I just don’t know it anymore.
I still can’t believe it’s not learning!
Actually, you all FAIL.
If you know what I mean..
It can be ‘their’ in this sentence, if they think of their learning, not they are learning
Um, so you’re saying the software makes the kids dumber? As in, they’ll no longer “know their learning”?
And you think this is the point Creative Kids Software was intending to convey?
Shyeah, now there are TWO fails on this page.
Vandalism Win
[hahahaha, that's actually amazing]
Guys?! This is a FAIL with a Vandal WIN! P.S. STOP DOING *SQUEEZIES* AT OTHERS OR SOMETHING. THERE IS NO SENSE AT ALL. ACT LIKE ENRISH.COM’S CAPTION IT. THIS IS MY LAST ACTION! *SQUEEZES AND PUNCH ON FACE*
I mean Engrish.com’s Caption It.
correction win?
It’s true. I don’t know my learning.
Since we’re getting all Grammar Police on this, it should be “So much fun” and not “so fun.” Does the idiocy ever stop?
Much isn’t necessary. “Fun” is an adjective and “so” is an adverb. Adverbs modify adjectives (and verbs). Adding “much” makes “fun” a noun. There’s no reason it needs to be a noun. It may sound better as modified, but it’s not wrong as is.
I now see someone had written that in originally. Vision FAIL on my part.
*shakes head* shame the billboard people never proof read.
i dont get it……………….. isnt there describing a place? and their is usually a person? i might regret asking this, but whats the fail?
Seriously? If you are not joking, I can begin to see, if not understand, how this sort of mistake was made in the first place.
I’m going to assume you’re not joking and offer a bit of help. You are on the right track, but you forgot the contraction “they’re,” which is short for “they are.” “Their” does typically have to do with people, but this is a possessive word, like “his” or “hers.” Unfortunately, it’s just not good enough to think in terms of associating the words with people or places, since “their” and “they’re” are both usually associated with people.
Good luck in life.
Third time’s a charm…
It could actually make sense: the games are so fun that the children forget what they have learned in school.
“They’ll forget their learning”
Get it?
FAIL – The word used in the sign is “know,” not “forget,” as in, “They won’t know their learning.”
Double FAIL – Even if it was “forget,” would that make sense in a sales pitch?
Get it? It’s a fail. You’re a FAIL. Also, this FAIL is not even new on this thread.
lol you’re taking this and yourself way too seriously. its just a fail blog picture.
“They wont know their learning” = “They’ll forget their learning”
How had is that to understand?
And that’s why Lego should just stick to making toys.
Something tells me this photo was taken at a Best Buy….
yup looks like best buy to me lol
me too
I Dunno if this was actually said, all those chains withouth sense are boring to read… anyway, this is correct…
OK, i dont talk english as my 1st language, but they dont use “their” as they’re, it means the knownledge(?) as an objet, so they say their learning, in spanish is common using stuff like that… It would be like this on spanish: “Tan divertido que ni siquiera sabran de **SU** aprendizaje” as meaning they’ll dont knowthe knownledge they have just aquired…
Anyway, as i dont speak english i couldn’t say if they are doing it at “my way” and they try to mean “they’re”…
Their is used possessively. That was their mayonnaise.
There refers to a place. The shirt is over there.
They’re means “they are”. So much fun, they won’t even know they’re learning!
Yay! Problem solved!! =)
It’s not a misspell. It’s a malapropism.
If the software is ineffective, the ad IS spelled correctly: the kids won’t know their learning.
not their, they’re is the correct form in this situation
In other words, the kids will learn nothing at all.
Just like adults.
i would call this a win…..
It’s not wrong, ever heard of trhe grammar rule that you have to use the objective form before “ing” words?
now that’s a FAIL
I had no idea Lego Harry Potter and Powerpuff Girls were educational.
Perhaps this is a deliberate construction—”their” could be a possessive pronoun modifying the noun “learning.” If such is the case, these games would serve to void knowledge. Seeing as this seems to be the function of most video games, this just might be one of the more accurate and honest ads out there!
hah it took me forever and a year to figure out what was wrong with it
And all the Grammar Nazis die a little bit inside.
lol i thought that somebody had crossed out the regular words and added in something funny. i didnt even notice the bad grammar
