One person's commentary on how sloppy people have become with the spoken and written word. It all started with one commercial having glaringly bad grammar. I thought I would run out of material if I posted weekly. I was wrong. There are advertisers that need to go to grammar school.

Episode 117: United Healthcare - shopping around (for better grammar)
The ad has a businessman discussing how his customers have the opportunity to shop the competition. He says "My customers can shop around." Could he have said "My customers like to look at all their options." Which version sounds better than the other? I like options. Am I shopping around town or around the Internet? Maybe he listened to too much Captain and Tennille while he was younger.
