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.

Come fly with me!

Everyone looks at the Skymall catalog when they're on a plane, right? You can't not. And sometimes, they have something in there that you do kind of need for your friend who gardens and/or loves Lord of the Rings. Or who has a pet that loves gadgets. Of course. Everyone has that friend, right? Sometimes you are that friend. Embrace it.

Anyway, it's easier to shop for those things when you get home, and you can break out your credit card. So, you head to the website. And that's when you see this.

I'm pretty sure that if I checked with some inventors, they'd take a pass. Y'all know this is one of my pet peeves. Not every S gets an apostrophe! I don't understand why that's so hard to remember! Sometimes, an S is just an S. It doesn't deserve special treatment, or get a special hat to wear.

Someone, tell the children. They need to know. For the future.

(Thanks, AJ!)
