FYI -- Looking To Make a Profound Statement?

Then maybe you should check your grammar.

Case in point:



Seriously. If it doesn't make sense when you read it back to yourself
then you really need to go back and re-write it.


UPDATE: Some people probably think I'm being too hard on the creator. After all, maybe English isn't their first language. If so, I apologize, but I suspect that it is part of a larger epidemic lately of people who just don't think that correct usage of the language is important, and seem to think it's okay to take a "shotgun" approach to English, throwing out a phrase and figuring it's "close enough, they'll get it." Now I'll be the first to admit that I'm lazy by nature, but communication is vitally important, and in the case of this video the lack of extra effort on the language side really undermines the hard work they seem to have put into the rest of the film.
