Subject: RE: BS: Candidates for WORST ad slogan/jingle
My current irritation is one for Egypt (as in, Go to Egypt! not, Buy Egypt.) that says over and over again, "I wish I was..." in blah de blah, finishing with the very profound, "I wish I was in Egypt." I spend the entire run of the commercial screaming at the television, 'WERE! I wish I WERE in Egypt! Subjective! Subjective!"

But okay, that's just me, anal in funny little ways. But you woulf think that if you're paying that much to put commercials on in an English speaking country, you'd get the grammar right?
