And on THAT note...!

Okay, so I'm browsing 3x plus sizes on eBay when I run across a cute blouse. I click on it for details and laugh myself silly upon reading the following:

This item is a black with white pack a dots. The tag is worn and hard to read but the blouse is in great shape. I never dried it in the dryer. I washed it in the genital cycle only. I loved this blouse.

The "pack a dots" was good, but the laundering details were what really got me.

Night, y'all.

Now it makes perfect sense.

I know, right? Santa needs to bring them a clue next Christmas.

Yeah, that was kind of my reaction. It's probably just as well that the top in question woun't fit me, since I'm pretty sure the seller isn't using the money to put herself through college. (Although I could be wrong.)

ROFL!

Which reminds me of a resume I opened (one of my duties as a secretary at a previous job was to open the mail and sort it for my boss). The 20-something woman was applying for a technical position and she stated no less than THREE times that she had a collage degree.

Clearly, said degree wasn't in English, or spelling, or language arts...

I once applied for a job at an office that had a typewritten application to fill out, made up by the office manager. There were numerous errors on it. When I got to the question about my spelling accuracy, I went through and circled the errors.

I got the job.

That's priceless. Really.

When the kid was in school, I used to correct (in red, of course) all the spelling and grammar errors on anything I had to sign and return to the school. Sadly, there were usually lots of them, including three grammatical errors in the letter from the principal that went in the front of hundreds of copies of the high school handbook. And this was a state school of excellence, which really made me wonder about the standards for that award.

One of his business profs in college last semester repeatedly spelled "college" as "collage" in his syllabus. Jeeze.

That school need a refresher course in how to use spell check.

I've run into this as well, letters and stuff sent home from the school (middle school, in this case) filled with typos and the wrong punctuation.

Yeeeesh! And these people are teaching our KIDS?

That's fantastic! Best laugh of the morning.

I ran across it at OMG in the morning, and I don't *think* I woke the neighbors, but it was close.
