Source of Inspiration- Grammar

    This week I am doing another source of inspiration post.  One source for inspiration I have is seeing incorrect grammar.  Seeing this makes me double check my grammar for mistakes all the time! My example starts off with a small explanation.

    I am a proud owner of an Android smartphone, the LG G3 to be exact. As many people know Android is owned by Google.  Their app store is called the Play Store.  One thing I find oddly, somewhat enjoyable is completing surveys.  With both of these I found an awesome app, called Google Opinion Rewards.  I strongly suggest this app to anyone that owns an Android device.  It is simple, every few weeks to every month this app will notify you that there is a survey.  You click on the notification and it takes you to the app and you fill out a short survey, usually only a few questions.  So what is so great about that? In return for completing surveys you get Play Store credits! I save up my credits and buy other apps with the money. Pretty awesome, right? By now you are probably wondering how this has to do with inspiration or grammar. Well today I got a notification for a survey! Awesome, right?! Well I was presented with this question:


    First off, I will admit that I just turned twenty one in August and have not yet been to a casino. But the point here is that even a big company like Google can misuse grammar. As seen in the answer choice: "I have never went to a casino."

To back up this, Microsoft Word says:

With this in mind, it gives me inspiration to always double check my grammar!
