    The tagline for Haribo bothers me. “Kids and adults love it, so…”

    “So” what!? Also, “so” is improper. Should be “therefore”.

      I HATE it whenever brands use bad grammar in ads, like how Apple says, “come get iPhone 14”; it’s “an iPhone” not iPHONE YOU HEAR ME

        I probably should have pointed out that I was being sarcastic. By “love it so”, they mean “love it so much”. It’s an old phrase that has fallen out of use.

          Oh lol. I was split on if it was grammatically correct so I thought your comment was confirming that side of my mental debate haha

          But my point about IPhone still stands…
