Why can't you write/speak proper?

I can’t believe what I just heard on our dear Aunty.

“Winds coming down from the artic …”

I’m sorry … from where?

It’s the ARCTIC people!!!!! There’s a whole consonant in there you’re missing. So let’s practice this one:

“Winds from the Arctic … Arctic ….ARCTIC.”

And just for good measure, try “Antarctic” too, and make sure you don’t miss the first C in THAT one!!

Lift your game Aunty.

This blog gets a hell of a lot of spam comments. I spend hours scanning and deleting that crap.

But here is something really, REALLY annoying. This is a blog about correct and proper use of the english language – spelling, grammar, syntax, etc. Yet the spammers are some of the worst writers I’ve encountered – so they’re certainly not endearing themselves to me with their poor writing. I mean, I doubt I’d let any of them actually get published, but if they can’t even write properly they stand absolutely no chance.

Check out this prize contribution (no doubt courtesy of some extremely bad translating software):

We’re continually testing variations of our search results after to optimize engagement in regard to both you and our users. Similarly, you’re quite always fatiguing to find ways to exaggerate each contract for of your ad to get your implication across to users. To remedy, we’ll soon be making a metamorphosis to certain ads that will suffer you to vaunt more facts where it’s most qualified to be noticed–in the headline.

Starting today and over and above the next not many days, we’re changing the placement of the maiden thumbnail sketch parade for sure ads that appear mainly the search results on Google. In favour of some ads where each procession appears to be a well-defined decision and ends in the dignified punctuation, description tailback 1 resolution be moved to the headline and separated through a hyphen. As a consequence, some acme array ads hand down procure longer headlines. Here’s an example:

We’ve found that the modulate results in higher clickthrough rates after ads that are shown with the longer headline, as well as other excellent ads that show up wits them. It also creates a more advisedly judgement as a replacement for users by highlighting more data in the ad.

While not some ads whim be shown with the longer headline, you can further your chances past ensuring that each line of your ad appears to be a distinct determination and ends in the seemly punctuation (e.g., a aeon or a topic assess).

Since this is a worldwide change, punctuation will reshape alongside country.

WTF?!?!?!?!?

Apart from making absolutely no sense, it has quite a few oddities. Like a mix of American and English spelling (optimize and favourite).

Honestly, you spamming pricks. I’m sick of getting your spam posted as potential comments on my blog. But I’m even more annoyed when you post utter, senseless, unintelligible CRAP like this.

Go away and leave me (and my blog) alone!!!
