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.

Important tips

This submission is from loyal reader MR, who always finds some crazy stuff to send in. This one isn't a spelling fail, but it's still delightfully wonky. Have a look:

Because, when you hit return, that bullet point comes up automatically, and it can be a REAL TRIAL to remove it. And by REAL TRIAL, I mean placing the cursor at the beginning of the line and hitting delete. EXHAUSTING. But why did the person hit return at that point? And why did they capitalize almost every word? What does it mean? Is it a code? A secret message? A desperate plea for us to take the watering of our plants more seriously? I just don't know. But I'm a little exhausted myself at this point.

(Thanks, MR!)
