Because there is no “and” between “MacBook Pro” and “two software programs”, it should mean that they are part of a list, so the next item of the list should be another object for the same verb:

Many blunders–because they have been used for so long–have now sounded correct, but the fact remains that they are still grammatical errors.

‘I' as a pronoun is used as the subject or in the subject of a sentence; thus, “I will give you a call.”

“Me” as a pronoun is used as the object of a verb or as the predicate or as part of the predicate. Like, for example, “Give me a call,” in which ‘me' is the object of the verb ‘give,' as well as a part of the predicate “me a call.” The subject of the sentence is the invisible “you,” as in “You give me a call” or “You give Chris and me a call” or “You give me and Chris a call.”

Sorry, but in point number 7 you made an error that has become increasingly common in forming conditional and suberican speakers of the language.

However, if you review the example, it was in fact an “example” sentence that plays on the popular colloquialism “woulda, coulda, shoulda,” and I maintained the structure in the name of–you guessed it–parallelism.

This is one of those areas where grammatical technicians miss the point completelymunicating a point using a common reference point is better than worrying about something that is beside the point to the example. The whole sentence is bad, frankly, but that is beside the point.

Hopefully some of the people in question will read this post and change their ways

That being said, I'll fix it, because I don't want to mislead people into thinking the second sentence is totally correct. ??
