More likely it was the painter. That kind of thing happens from time to time.

Yes, and most of the talking heads (including the ones who are supposed to be smart and college educated) use “ain’t” now as a matter of course. English language? Hell in a handbasket...

Well, one of our local public screwels had this on their sign:

Happy Holiday's

And the beauty part is that we got to see that idiot sign for two weeks during their school shutdown.

And when I went to my daughter's 9th grade Open House, the English teacher, who greeted us in jeans and a torn hunting shirt, passed out a pamphlet that had 8 grammatical errors.

I was going to call the school, but . . . what the hell . . . what good would it do!

I worked for the State of Alaska DOT and once we had a sign come in from a vendor that said: BIEK XING.

A local HS once had a billboard announcing Atheletic schedules
I called them when I got to work and said they should ask one of their English teachers to look at the billboard

It was changed when I went by on the way home
