What's with people and subject/verb agreement? I see this more and more on the Net and it drives me nuts.

"T-Mobile are" should be "T-Mobile is." T-Mobile is singular. If you're in England, that's OK because they do it different over there. But this ain't England.

As long as you're tilting at windmills, join me in my crusade for the proper use of "there," "their," and "they're." :/

I am putting my two cents in for

brought and bought

and weather whether

And the next person who uses irregardless gets an atomic wedgie.

(Just noticed the spell checker passes that word. What has the world come to)

I love that what has traditionally been a hot topic on AC, which is any hint of a future G-series phone, has now dissipated into a grammar discussion beginning with the very first post.

This topic finally gets the attention it deserves.

*golf clap*

The subject is off too. It should be "T-Mobile USA confirms..."

Subject-verb agreement, people.

Adding to the list: threads that ask if they'll "loose" their apps.

I'd just like to note the utter hilariouty of taking the time to make a statement regarding apparent grammatical errors and ending it with the sentence "But this ain't England", which has at least two grammatical problems.

As someone who was raised in England, NO it's not OK there either...
