Speaking of free shipping (and misspellings by major corporations)

Toy R Us has an advertisement on their site that says Sperd $49 and get free shipping.

Shame, Toy R Us. 100 lashes with a wet noodle for conspicuous misspelling.

Speaking of which, I drove next to a McDonalds truck the other day that had this on the side: CONTENTS INSIDE: FRESH. ‘Kay, not to get picky or anything, but ‘contents’ and ‘inside’ mean the same thing. They cancel each other out. It makes no sense. You could say, CONTENTS: FRESHNESS or you could say CONTENTS, FRESH! But contents inside? I say no.

NO, McDonalds.

  1. Both of those just made me laugh. Gotta love grammar problems with big corporations.
