LANGUAGE LESSONS

(sigh)

The blog is shocked.

It amazes me that some people go through life not understanding that the objects of prepositions are always objective, not nominative, pronouns. How many times do you hear things like "Mom sent Brad and I some X-rated videos."
Ok, ok, so maybe Mom wouldn't send X-rated videos, but WHATEVER she sent -- it would NOT be "to Brad and I." She would have sent them (or whatever) to Brad and ME (objective case ME...object of the preposition "to.")
And, blog readers, as I'm certain all of YOU know, the words are REAL-TOR, not REAL-A-TOR and BUS-I-NESS, not BI-NESS.
Another peeve is that in the south, especially, we have not yet learned that every noun is not (OMG) POSSESSIVE. Just recently I have seen signs like:

Closed for the Holiday's
Puppy's for Sale
Mikes Motor Bike's (Mike needs to understand that HE possesses the bikes and that the bikes possess nothing. Bless his heart.)
