Is you is or is you aint?


How can the TV news have any serious credibility when their bulletins is full of grammatical errors?
When is and are are swapped around at someones maniacal whim, we is all lost I'm afraid.
I have no formal training on what the rules of Grammar is, but when I hear it done bad, I can't help but not wonder that as a society; is we on the slippery slope to Anarchy? So - Is we people???? IS WE?
Please don't lose sleep wondering if you've got the grammar bug or not - just remember either ya got it or you don't.

Got it?


ARRRRGGGGHHHHH

To quote the master [Ace Venturer]

"It is our mucus that binds us"

NOT grammar. Not sticky enough.

Anyway, everyone knows that proper grown up types watch TV1 news instead. After all TVNZ awards them best news program every year so it must be true.
