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.

Workin' up a sweat

My friend MR was out and about having an awesome time when this troubling error brought her evening to a screeching halt. Y'all have perused a karaoke catalog or two, right? You know how they are. They're generally kind of a mess, to put it gently. MR just wanted to find some fantastic song that would bring the crowd together in a moment of drunken, euphoric abandon. As you do. And this is what she found.

Do you see it? Let me help you out.

With helpful arrow to guide the way!

Back when this song came out (in 1988, kids), it was called Push It. This, I would say, is not a typo, but a lousy copy job, since the P and the R are in two different places on the keyboard. You wouldn't want to confuse it with Paula Abdul's masterpiece Rush, Rush. That would be a TRAGEDY.

Actually, it really would. Can you imagine climbing up on the stage, ready to rap your little heart out, and suddenly a ballad starts playing? Yikes. Karaoke misery right there, y'all.

Though, I don't know. If I were picking songs from this page, I might roll with Smooth Operator. Everyone loves a little Sade. Right?

(Thanks, MR!)

    The thing I noticed was Pharoahs should be Pharaohs.

      Ha! That's true! I didn't even read the rest of it. Just looked at what was pointed out!
