A copywriter's nightmare... funny as hell, but painful nonetheless. "Huang Huang"...what does that even mean?!? Anyone speak Chinese? LOL PLEASE, read on...

House, a vulgar language, the character of the cynical doctors, a never believe anyone in particular, the patient's own doctor, it is a solution to numerous diseases doctor, "House" is a new medical drama.

George House (Hugh Laurie) has no concern for the patients bedside accompanied by the consciousness, but always leaning a crutch to Huang Huang, as if this will mean he brutal show. In fact, despite the acts of Guaizhang House, he is a perfect intuitive diagnosis were excellent. As a medical expert, the house still good at capturing the medical problems in the gate of hell to save patients.

Over the past four seasons, guiding the House by a young elite team of experts to help him solve the diseases. His good friend, oncology expert James Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard) for his loyalty. At the same time, medical director of the Department, the hospital's head of the Treasury Di Lisa (Lisa Edestein) between the House and the sincerity of Health dark. Although the house is often good to be true because of their responsibilities and act in conflict with her, even then, she has to admit that the house smart enough to offset the trouble he caused.

School Boo-Cool

"If you lose your keys, don't fuss. If you lose your face, don't wince."

Uh, what's THAT supposed to mean exactly?!?

That was actually a sentence taken from a text book being used in public schools around the country. The same text book that contains about 600 other grammatical errors; that makes an average of 3 errors per page. Now, you think that's disturbing? Picture this: 60 or 70 students cramped in 1 classroom, SHARING said book, no doubt, because there just aren't enough (thank God). How can these kids be expected to learn in that kind of environment? How can these kids be expected to learn. Question mark.

It's not the same in ALL public schools, but still. It's atrocious. What puzzles me is that politicians would rather tackle the issue of a sensationalized sex video scandal than a graver, more pressing problem such as this one.

And we wonder why the nation is in deep sh*t all the time.

It's Its There Their They're

A-wesome!

Frizzy got 10/10 questions correct.

It's pretty obvious that she doesn't make basic grammatical errors. (aww, shucks, not always)
If anything, she's annoyed when people make simple mistakes on their blogs. (err)
As far as people with bad grammar go, she knows they're only human. (of course! I mean, gosh, I'm all about imperfection!)
And it's humanity and its current condition that truly disturbs her sometimes. (way to go with the it's!)

Painful Grammar 2

I took this during a crazy road trip to Baguio. We were done shopping for the day and we just couldn't decide where to eat for dinner that night. We ended up at this chicken place that serves really delicious food. The only terrible thing about this restaurant was this picture. It may be a little hard to decipher, since it's an illuminated sign and all, but in case you couldn't make it out, it reads "MORE SEATS UPSTAIR."

upstairSSSSSS!!!
