    What’s so fail about this?

    I would love to know how one can loose weight.

    I see people trying to “loose weight” all the time. I get this weird mental image of them setting their fat free like a wild bird.

    I’m not sure what the “Ad Feedback” thing is about, though…

      You can’t just let domestic fat loose into the wild! It won’t know how to survive. You have to find a new home for it, like on Oprah’s ass. She’s not getting fat, she’s a goddamned saint.

    Yay this was mine =D

    The ad feedback link is where you can tell them what you thought of the ad. Stuff like if you would use the product, if you thought the ad was good, the additional comment space where you can point out they can’t spell….

    As a Professor of Accounting for about 35 years, I know a lot about “loosing” money (or weight).

    After about 5 years, I began my first lecture by explaining that “loosing” money was a cardinal sin. Any one who used that incorrect spelling received an automatic “F” in the course (of course, they didn’t).

    In each course, I found dozens of these sins on tests, homeworks, etc.

    I find this particular English Fail to be extraordinarily widespread on the internet, and it perplexes me because it’s not one I ever came across before personal publishing.

    They spelt ‘realise’ wrong, too ;-)

      Then dictionary.com spells realize wrong, too. Maybe Gert is British?
