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.

Is November here yet?

It's election season! Yay! Barf. Is it over yet? The election ads, robo-calls, tense moments between coworkers, family members, etc. It's all just too much, isn't it? Yes, this is important, and yes, I do think you should vote. But man, we are bombarded with this nonsense constantly, right? I mean, sometimes you just want to go on Facebook and watch some stupid videos posted by your friends. You don't want to see ads there, too! Not like this one, anyway.

This ad is speaking to Prop 37 as though it were a dog. NO, Prop 37. Bad Prop 37! Which is just stupid. If you want people to agree with you, and do as you say, shouldn't you be explicit? Tell them EXACTLY what you want them to do? "Vote no ON Prop 37." A verb and a preposition would work wonders here. Clarity is a marvelous thing.

Don't even get me started on dragging poor, defenseless pizza into this nonsense. HOW DARE THEY?

(Thanks, SH!)
