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.

and you'll like it!

As CE said when she submitted this photo, I usually give non-English-speakers a bit of a pass, but this was just too cute not to post.

MUSH! Obvs, they mean MUCH. It's an all you can eat buffet in England, where they have thus far resisted the Euro. I feel like that's kind of a lot of money for a buffet, especially with the last digit missing. I mean, I guess the worst it could be is a 9, in which case that's, what, like $25 for a buffet? Seems a bit high to this cheap-o.

However, my favorite part is that children under 1.2 meters get discounted rates. Does that leave out really short adults? And why the height decree? You have to wonder at what created the need for that rule. Like, did they get a run of really tall 10 year olds that ate everything they had because they were growing so fast? 1.2 meters is nearly 4 feet tall. At about what age do kids pass that height? It seems like an arbitrary rule, but I bet it's not.

Just a delightful mystery for us to ponder.

(Thanks, CE!)
