"Is linguistics another science of Satan? Linguists suggest that the original human language originated from southern Africa and had a lot of click consonants. This is baloney, since the original language of mankind was Hebrew. They also state that languages change over time and create different languages, while it is obvious from the Bible that languages were made different by God, as shown in the construction of Babel."

I think we've got a few of these now. Do we need a "Typos" category?
    Posted by mike on 5 Mar 2010.
I suppose we could - they're a worthwhile form of humour in their own right. I originally thought we should avoid simple mistakes as fundamental misunderstandings/blatant stupidity are funnier, but I couldn't resist this one.

"If English isn't your strong point, ask at your local JobCentre for help in constructing a cv/completing application forms.

I don't get it...
    Posted by CheddarBBQ on 28 Feb 2010.
Then you might want to ask for help with your grammar. :-)
    Posted by JT on 28 Feb 2010.
Just don't ask the Jobcentre :)
    Posted by mike on 2 Mar 2010.
Cheddar - it should have said: "...that they could HAVE got...". "...help IN constructing a cv..." really should have been "...help WITH..." too. Actually, the entire second sentence is incorrect; but since I already have a reputation for being a grammar nazi I'll let it go.
    Posted by JT on 2 Mar 2010.
But if they could have got job offers due to basic errors, but missed out on them... maybe that means they need more basic errors in their writing?

Damn - I always forget about bears. That's likely to prove fatal one of these days.
