Yes, the autumn one. It's pretty.

This is, incidentally, why I don't correct except in known geeky-space. I feel like pointing out spelling failures would be mean.

Homophone abuse is what I'd call it. It's not a failure of grammar so much as it's a failure of correct usage.

Herman Melville bewhaled us all.

What the heck is "costumize?" Dressing up in costumes? Or a really bad way of trying to spell customize?

I'd find "costumize" funny if it was a neologism. Alas, I see it rather too often as a misspelling of "customize".

*shudder* That didn't even register as a possibility.

Should I apologize for traumatising you?

Clanguage? Though that's probably overgeneral.

trinker September 4 2010, 01:48:21 UTC

Not getting the reference. Help!

Seeing this sort of error distracts me from what the writer means to say -- their words go *clang* at that point. Like clanging a gong.

Ahh. Nifty! I was looking at it, and thinking, what does this have to do with a Clan?
