A friend captured this little jewel on our local news last month. With all the weird weather across the country, I thought this was timely. Check out the weather in Safford. Arizona can be hot in the summer, but not usually in December and 128 is our all-time record high. It looks like someone’s typing fingers got a little carried away.
I received this email and noticed the error in the address line. It is correct in the body of the email, so obviously someone knew the right way to spell it or perhaps they were just taking a 50/50 chance knowing that one of them would be right and hoping no one would notice.
This was on a friend’s Facebook page. Even though it is only one letter, there is a huge difference between “comma” and “coma.” Let the punctuation jokes begin.
Wishing a very Merry Christmas to those of you who celebrate and as your gift I include a collage of some memes on the theme and a gift wrap with a slight problem, but there is a “t” in there somewhere!
On a trip to San Francisco this past weekend, I had the opportunity to ride the bus. I love to read the signs on buses because I find a lot of “material” there. I was lucky this time as well. It took me a minute or two because I looked at the sign and finally figured out why it looked weird to me–“disabilities” is misspelled. On the plus side, they are consistent. I rode more than one bus that had the same sign with the same error. Shame on you #SFMTA!
A blog reader forwarded this one to me. I can see the scene now:
Boss: Can you make a sign for those red band bananas
Worker: Sure thing, boss! You mean the bananas with the red tape that are almost rotten and should be banned?
Thank goodness for housebroken panini makers . . . and the entertainment provided by leaving letters off of words.
There are so many errors in this one sign I don’t think I could even get through them all. There are apostrophes used to make words plural, not enough periods, words that should be a single word divided into two words, capital letters where there doesn’t need to be or a small letter (if you want to be consistent) where a capital letter should be, misspellings . . . and my brain has now exploded.
This was on a recent local news station. There is a difference between peak, peek, and pique. Peak is the top, peek is to look slyly at, and pique is resentment or to offend. Obviously, they did not mean that the top is inside the Phoenix Amazon Fulfillment Center, they meant to look inside the Phoenix Amazon Fulfillment Center.
