Pet Peeve

"Supposedly." It's not a difficult word. Note the "d," which is not to be forgotten, nor replaced with a "v" or a "b." It's a four syllable word, people - that's it. And here's the thing; think how silly it would sound if people made this same pronunciation mistake when using the adjective form of the word, "supposed." You never hear "supposeb" or "supposev." It only seems to be the adverb "supposedly" that is hacked to death with mispronunciations.

Don't Be So Possessive

Snapped these pics of my menu during brunch with friends last week. Apparently their waffles are Blegiun, and their eggs are possessive. (Brownie points to anyone who can tell me what restaurant this menu is from.) To their credit, there was a small print line at the bottom where they acknowledged missing and misspelled words, poor grammar, etc. But it still drives me crazy that they are aware of it yet don't correct it!

Sorry for the blurry pics - my camera needs a "half flash," in my opinion.

Bed Bath Busted

Remember when you were a kid and you would look through HighLights magazine at the dentist or doctor's office? Remember the front page with the illustration and you searched for the hidden objects? It's like that, except it's a mass marketing e-mail coupon, and instead of looking for objects you are looking for two large, staring-you-right-in-the-face typos.

Spell check, people!!
