These cards are at least 5 years old! Hilarious story though

(Article dated 2007, OP has poor literacy? )

Me fail English? That's unpossible.

It was a post on my FB feed this morning which I thought was worth a laugh. Didn't realise it was so old.

It was also covered a year or two ago on these forums. It's old news is what and a search should have been done on an article so old.

Every year we should have to undertake a test with a question like this, the test is attached to a bomb and those that fail are simply exploded.

Lol, she should have tried harder and got that GCSE.

And you should have tried harder at English GCSE

Companies shouldn't put out such polite press releases. It should say something along the lines of "unfortunately a large minority of the people who played this game were complete retards, and we really can't be bothered with the hassle of having to explain to morons how numbers work".

My god some people, particularly Tina Farell, are so stupid.

lol you bunch of grammar nazis.

Wow using of instead of have.
Do you make the same comments about Shakespeare? He was renowned for not using correct english.

Go watch that Stephen Fry video.

I got marked down for using Shakespearean words in English...

Of and have is a much bigger faux pas!

lol you bunch of grammar nazis.

It's not really just pedantry though is it, half your posts make almost no sense at all and it's a real headache earner to read them at times as many people keep alluding too

It really undermines whatever it is you to have to say on a subject because you are usually found in quite technical threads trying to argue technical subjects with posts that go beyond just poor grammar and into the realms of just strings of words that make little sense

Lol, she should have tried harder and got that GCSE.

You have to actually try in order to gain a GCSE????

She couldn't have turned up to the exam.

 

[Ol!ver]

I saw this on Sky News earlier. Currently confused as to how they think it's new yet the original source in this thread says it's five years old.

So, Sky News is pulling news from elsewhere that is ancient, or the source's CMS is knackered.

 

[Fenris]

General public in being **** at maths shocker.

 

[Monkeynut]

We sell Cool Cash at work but the game is different to the one in the OP and it looks "newer" in design, so perhaps this could be old news after all!
