You are off target here, as you are with your justification of mangling the language based on some spurious 'creativity' justification.
Kind regards.....and clear skies.  |
I wasnt talking about truth in advertising etc either. I was talking about taking liberties with the rules of grammer and spelling and when its acceptable and when its not.
I think what your reasoning leads to is that its OK for the establishment to break as many rules as they like because its some how creative or clever but when the average Joe does it (notwithstanding that his meaning might be equally clear but grmatically untraditional) he's some how wrong. Like I said, no thank you
