Big Bold Failures of the English Language

English is a tough language. To the point that not many native English speakers are masters of the language they are supposedly fluent in. It's kind of freaky how often you'll see a sign on a door that says "we are closed today, sorry for the incontinence." At least we can have fun with it and imagine they can't get to the door because they're pooping so much that at this very moment they're trying to slam their toilet lid closed like a frustrated vacationer jumping up and down on their overstuffed suitcase.

Anyway, even though English is one of the most widely used languages on the planet, almost no one is that good at it. And all we can say about that is "fantastic. Show me every time someone screwed this up and made a funny."

For some more times people didn't do this right, here are some blunderous foibles of the English language.
