I know how you feel, though, with all the grammatical errors around us. I swear, I did actually see a sticker on the rear end of a red AUV..."Remembered Jesus". LOL. @kaye – Hehe, got really worked up over this post eh? I know how you feel, though, with all the grammatical errors around us.

First off, the texter who sent that message to mock KC is dumb and stupid enough to correct KC's grammar. I bet that person went to school but was always asleep during English class. I can't imagine how somebody can correct anybody without doing a research first. Hello! We are now in the cyber world and any question, anything that you want answer with is only at your fingertips. "Always told" is absolutely correct! Bobo talaga ng nag-comment na yon as in bobo and the dumbest in the whole wide world of dumbness! She used "always told" bcoz her Mom used to tell her that in the past, it's like she's telling a story. She should have used "always tell" if her Mom is STILL reminding her to look her best. Namintas pa tong bobong to, kokonti naman pala ang alam. I just hope that the owner of this blog/site will 4ward my reply to whoever sent you that text message.

Just a sad case of someone wanting to find something to bring down (crab-like) someone they wish they could be. It wasn’t wrong when Forrest Gump used it, it isn’t wrong now.

However, this was not the case in the commercial. This "joke" must have been written by a member of the grammar police, who enjoys nitpicking for lack of a better thing to do. In any case, I didn't find it funny. As the Jesuits always say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it! Enjoy your weekend, my bro. Cheers! Bro JC Bro,

Yes, I should check the accuracy of the advert's contents. But really, whether it is as it was said or not, it is but an indicator of the sorry state of our education. Imagine condoning the wrong and mocking the right... I actually do see these types of grammatical errors on a widespread basis. Hi Noel,

Nothing was wrong with what KC said, but the people who wrote AND forwarded this message actually thought that it was wrong! I guess you guys validated my initial reaction as being correct.
