Following on from my previous post: Unbelievable. Within 48 hours of me pointing out the appalling grammar on the Commonwealth Bank’s exterior signage, the poor grammar mysteriously disappears! COINCIDENCE!?! I think not. My astonishment can clearly be seen in the above photograph.
I imagine the suits at the Commonwealth Bank are quite irritated at my little English lesson. But hey, it’s their freaking sign. It was on public display in Rundle Mall for at least 6 weeks! My website has only had 150 or so views in the last 2 days. Think of how many people saw the sign directly, noticed the bad grammar and then associated idiocy with the Commonwealth Bank? Thousands… They should be more irritated by their own incompetence. Ha-ha, na they’re okay.
So, in this case, the Internet (and its nit-picky bloggers) actually helped to draw attention to, and FIX the problem. How about that? Finally, a practical use for the Internet.
Kind regards,
