I don't know either it's because the "freedom of speech", or is it because of they skipped language class so much when they were still kids... Or, maybe they watched too many times the Dumb and Dumberer movie. But someone at Apple's and T-Mobile's marketing staffs, should be 'fired-er'. ~LOL~What surprises me more, is how come those messy grammars had the go from both companies' CEOs? Aren't those CEOs, or other high ranking leaders at prestigious companies like Apple & T-Mobile, are well educated people who spent loads of money to hire cum laude graduates?
Oh well, I guess it's alright if it's about marketing and competition... Especially if your own CEO used gross grammar naturally. Grammar Girl (found via Language Log), who began her podcast two weeks ago with news of this dire "grammar emergency": "Steve Jobs said 'funnest' on Tuesday in his keynote address about the new iPods, and people all over the Internet freaked out." And it's still in use for iPod Touch (2nd gen) slogan. ;-p
People, we're moving fast forward to the grammar disaster era while sucking on shiny new toy tv ads with loud music. Just like the latest T-Mobile offering for its G1 Android handset video below, watch it, you might even get 'smarterer' after watching it.
Is it just me, or did you also get a glimpse look of something funnier than the 'connecteder' when I hit pause button on the last minutes of the video? ;-)
