A complaint sent off to Moon Club of Dlouhá 709/26 – poor English – a disgrace

[Sent]

Dear Moon Club at Dlouhá 709/26,

I am an educated British woman who originated from Southern England and I must tell you that, on your Facebook advertisement about the Latino Night event every Thursday in Prague, you used wrong English punctuation. You should have written and published “THURSDAYS” without any apostrophe, but you made such a mistake of writing “THURSDAY’S”, a mistake that even a child of 7-8 years old knows how to avoid as even a child can write things like “You can go to Moon Club on Thursdays, if you like” and “I have tennis lessons on Fridays”. It is also fine to write “Tuesdays are bad days for me, for some reasons.” There is no apostrophe, unless you want to say something like “Thursday’s highlight is a drink called Havana Martini.” It is basic English. You did not even sort out your basic English? This is disappointing, Moon Club Dlouhá 709/26. This is gravely disappointing, I am afraid, I regret to say to you.

How do you do your business? Can you go do some work, please? Advertisements written in wrong English (spelling/ punctuation) make me feel silly, I feel like an idiot, so I do not want to sign up to a dancing session at your Moon Club, as that would make me feel like an idiot, and, I don’t want to be an idiot. I am a woman of civilization, the nobility of humankind, I am not a woman of trashy nonsense. At least, I do not get basic English punctuation wrong. It’s a pity, I like your Moon Club business logo, and your website seems to have beautiful photographs on it. Can you please go and fix your broken English as soon as possible?

How much money did you pay Facebook to advertise the dancing? What is the point in your business paying Facebook X amount of money to advertise the dancing, only to lose more than half of the money as potential customers-dancers don’t want to come, they would rather go elsewhere and be subjected to normal English? My friends in Prague have spending power, just like me, and, they also will not tolerate wrong English punctuation. It is never acceptable at work, and, they don’t like it either in their leisure time. That’s a disgrace, they say no to it. Are you fond of wasting money then? Is it your company policy to waste money? Is it your corporate policy to waste your own advertising time, to kill your own efficiency?

Please sort yourself out. Please respect literacy, education, and the English language.

You can, of course, pay me or pay someone like me, to do all the proofreading work for you in English- fees are cheap, we make your English 100% accurate. So, it’s good for grabbing more customers, if that is what you want.

From me

Let’s have the Dutch ‘Hunter Street’ for Czech quarantine productivity

Hello, all. I sent the following email to my Czech friend in Prague who is a parent. I’ve decided to share it:

I’m sorry to hear that the kids’ quarantine thing is ‘quite annoying’ for you. Hmmmmmm I cannot imagine how annoyed I would be, in Prague, if I were a mum in this situation. In the chaotic afternoons, are you going to get your kids to watch Hunter Street by Nickelodeon? But they key question is, HOW can you get Hunter Street?

Please do not waste time on playing Roblox for six hours straight.I have nothing against Roblox, but I have something against playing a video game for six hours straight. It is just excessive. I love Hunter Street.What’s so good about playing Roblox for six hours straight? What is that going to teach your children? Playing Roblox for six hours straight is NOT going to teach your children to help you. It is NOT going to teach your children to help you wash the dishes, it is NOT going to teach your children to clean the dirty car for you, it is NOT going to teach your children to help you wash the dirty clothes, to dry the dirty clothes, and so on. If you think about it – you are a clean person, they cause most of the mess, and you are constantly battling against this backlog – bits of bird food on the floor, attracting the silverfish at night, and those pests EAT YOUR SOCKS. Then, your clothes have HOLES THROUGH THEM. Give it a try. Get them to watch season 1 episode 1 of Hunter Street. Then, it goes on.

The children’s step-parents got into serious trouble as they got kidnapped, basically. And the children, who are step brothers and sisters, do their best to help their parents. The producers have carefully presented the story so that the viewer understands that the parents got kidnapped, but it’s not going to scare a child really too much. There’s even a part, in the Hunter Street TV show, when the children work hard to clean the house, before that social worker comes – so, the sister cleans the toilet, the brother scrubs the dirty floor… … … …What would your own children do for you? At least wash the dirty pot for you? At least take the clothes out of the washing machine then dry them ? ? ? ? Are they going to do ANYTHING at all? It is a really brilliant TV show, just perfect for a child who is 10. And I really enjoy it. You should give it a try! ! !! ! !!! ! ! ! !!!!!!!!! !!!!! If your girl is not going to do such a big job for you – COOK YOUR SPAGHETTI FOR YOU, FOR YOUR DINNER, at least she can do something very small, like toss the trash into the trash bin! ! ! I think it is a very big job, to cook spaghetti for dinner, certainly for a girl who is only ten years old!

The movie “Rachel Getting Married”: my personal responses

We watched the movie “Rachel Getting Married” and now we are watching BlackTree TV’s interview with the actress Anne Hathaway about her role in the movie, conducted by the interviewer Miss Candice Newsum. Anne Hathaway called Jonathan Demme “fascinating”. I was actually quite bored of the movie “Rachel Getting Married”. I don’t know what it was that I really wanted. A more spectacular car crash, like in those braindead action movies? A stronger/ more powerful plot? I did quite like the dialogues in the movie, to me they seem to be pretty sharp. There is an article about the movie “Rachel Getting Married” in Psychiatry and Behavioral Health Learning Network by HMP Global Learning Network – Psych Congress Network®. Apparently, they are based at: Pennsylvania – Corporate Headquarters, 70 East Swedesford Road, Suite 100, Malvern, PA 19355, United States of America.
