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.

More childhood trauma

In keeping with today's theme, here's a pic JR took of something she spotted in her kid's classroom. She's starting to worry about his education, as she's been the source of a FEW of the classroom problems I've posted. Take a look.

I wonder if the kids say anything. I mean, LOOKING isn't that complicated a word. Surely some of the kids notice that it's missing an I. Or is that part of the assignment? Or is the assignment just to know the colors? Because then I can see the kids not necessarily knowing how to spell LOOKING, if they're that young. Anyway, it's sad, right? Why is this teacher so uninterested in details? Does she teach everything this way? "Good job, Billy! You got 100% on this test!" "But I only got 7 of the 10 math problems correct!" "That's close enough!" 

Because we want to be a nation that's good enough. Awesome. 

I am TERRIFIED.

(Thanks, JR!)
