We all make errors, and sometimes, those errors can make us look like idiots. Especially when that error gets published out in the world, even though it likely went through a host of gatekeepers to get there. And that's why we're here. To shame those gatekeepers with an internet scarlet S. I don't expect you to be perfect. It takes a village, and every village has an idiot. But for the sake of your company's reputation, hire a village that has at least one member THAT CAN SPELL.

Mmm, cheese.

My friend AS risked life and limb to take this photo IN TRAFFIC, so we will now respond appropriately:

This one is a little tough to see. Let me see if I can do something about that.

Congrats?
WHAT IS THAT? That thing hanging down after the 2nd. Is it a comma? It's a THING, because it's also on their website (scroll to the bottom). They think it's supposed to be there. It's not. And it's crazy-making. Is it maybe some sort of remnant of the underline that was once underneath the nd abbreviation? Is it a vestigial tail on the d? Remember, back in the Cretaceous period, when ds roamed the earth, their great tails allowing them to balance in trees while they stalked their prey? They're totally domesticated now, but I guess now and then, those tails reappear, reminding us of their once-terrifying past.

Or maybe it's just a weird thing. Could go either way at this point.

I do definitely want a grilled cheese sandwich now, though. A LOT.

(Thanks, AS!)
