Lowest Common Denominator

IOW: crap. That’s the “standard” of English taught by the Mass MEdia Podpeople Hivemind to those who sup its toxic waste. Take this piece of ungrammatical stupidity taken from an otherwise innocuous piece of fluff about a woman who found a 17 gram piece of a meteorite:

“That gem from outer space was found at the Lotus park where Brenda, her kids and her collie come to [sic] nearly every day.”

*gagamaggot*

“[W]here [they] come”, not “come to” unless followed by something they do. “[W]here [they] come to [play, relax, walk the dog, etc.]” would be acceptable. Idiot Podperson. (*heh* I initially mistyped, “Posperson”–“Piece of shiite person”?)

Note: “Shiite” is the common Islamic term for “shit”. That’s my story and I’m sticking with it.
