If the attorney had written this in real understandable English, someone would have questioned whether he was worth the $400 or $500 or whatever hourly rate he was billing.  If they can't understand it, they figure he knows something that they don't.

Ha ha.. yupp. Here's another gem filled with redundancy:

'NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:'

In consideration of the err.. consideration?? Therefore, foregoing,..follows??

BTW, this document is straight from the corporate offices of a major automotive OE..

Nicholas courses are mean and evil. I love them. 

Not trying to pick on you, Shane, but I hate when people can't spell names. "Jim Nance" is another one. My own is a third. Particularly when my name, or Nicklaus's name, or whomever's is right there where you can see it.

C'mon man!  One of the best ever deserves to have his name spelled properly!

This one isn't from TST, but from an article on MyGolfSpy (which does have poor writing in general, but this was particularly awful):

Sufficed to say our recent test of Costco’s Kirkland Signature Golf Ball has raised product awareness.

I think he meant 'gimp' meter like from Pulp Fiction.

Now that's funny!

Did you mean historic sites?

Did you mean Emma?

Did you mean International Women's Day?

Very unique, how can something be very unique?

I'll just stop at this point.

Don't forget the tense shift either ... she "visited" ... "and dropping" ... ;)

(Not to mention that this isn't a Women's Day thing for her - she does that all the time)

I couldn't even make it that far.

Mass protection. Like, what is that, man?

[Shorty]

Please stop writing "suppose to" instead of "supposed to" and "use to" instead of "used to" .Thanks.

Tense used to be "a thing", you know.

From Golf.com's article on Si Woo Kim winning the Player's (these two doozies were two paragraphs apart):

I bought a season pass to the local small lake.   This was on the receipt.

"You must show your reciept and drivers license at the gate or office to recieve your sticker."

 

UGH!

You don't expect him to be able to write proper "English" do you?

I noticed grammatical errors in his Twitter timeline, sometimes you can tell mistakes are typos or no time to type, they don't seem to be of that variety, I think he skipped out on English class.
