Strike SIX for Dirty Harry’s

Posted on July 23, 2011 by hopemccain

Strike six, you say? Oh, you’d better believe it! I have officially lost all interest in contacting Dirty Harry’s about their grammar and spelling mishaps. That would be like giving up a source of income (if only I could make millions off this blog like I do in my dreams). Dirty Harry’s is a gold mine.

Go FORTH and learn proper English!

Side note for all who are interested: This is my ONE HUNDREDTH post!!! Wooooohooooooo! Thank you to all my readers for your never-ending grammar love, and please continue to share this blog with fellow grammar snobs! 😀

What sucks more than a grammar error? How about five grammar errors made by the same business? A friend of mine sent this to me and my jaw nearly dropped when I saw it. Dirty Harry’s really needs to clean up its act! (Bahahaha, I love cheesy puns.)

At this point, I’m tempted to send an email to the owner of Dirty Harry’s and ask him/her if his/her child is in charge of the signs. But seriously, I’m taking a poll:

Making this post means I have to admit I tend to pick on car washes. So be it. Maybe it’s something in the soap. Whatever the reason for all the car wash mistakes, I’m adding another to the list. If you need an “expess” wash, this is the car wash for you:

Strike three for Dirty Harry’s

No, your eyes do not deceive you; this is strike THREE for Dirty Harry’s.

Apparently running a business does not require the ability to distinguish between “to” and “too.” Once again, a lesson we all should have learned in first grade seems to have gone in one ear and out the other.
