I write the way I talk. It may not be proper english, but I know what is proper english.
Years ago even some newspapers and magazines started ignoring 'the rules.' They start sentences with 'and' or 'but.' They end sentences with prepositions. Maybe because it takes less words to make a point.
However, there are times when misuse gets the best of me. Such as,"Items left in car's are not the responsibility of management."
I bring this up because today I bought toothpaste, and as I was throwing away the box I noticed the ad on the side. It reads, "With regular use, it removes stains ordinary toothpaste don't."
How many people might one presume were involved from sketch to production, and not one noticed?
