Editing the world, one post at a time

Found at brunch yesterday.  No comment.

Also, just FYI, I am out of things to post.  You want more posts?  Send more things!

…so go ahead and get injured.  Love, the Shuttle Bus Operators.

Thank you very much for this delightful Friday homophone, Childhood Friend Katie!

Kacia found this punctuation travesty in a small restaurant in Wisconsin, on an ad for a business that does fireworks displays.

There has to be a logic here.  Let’s see.  Oh, you use apostrophes to pluralize!  No, can’t be that, because “weddings” and “graduations” are plural.  Is it a rule that you have to use an apostrophe after a y to pluralize?   Nope, can’t be that, because “birthdays” has no apostrophe.

I give up!  Thanks, Kacia!

It’s Kacia week here at RPB!  I love that when my friends go places, they think of me.  I want a t-shirt that says “My friend went to [insert destination here] and all I got was this lousy grammatical error.”

Anyway, Kacia found this extremely unhappy chocolate showing its terrible claws at her neighborhood burger joint.  For that we are grateful.

I found this one in a parking lot last night.  I think it’s extra-special because the tiny little ad on the lower left says “Total Photo Imagine (On The Spot).”

Julie calls this “an exuberant plural.”

Happy Wednesday, Julie!

Michael would like to know, “Why discriminate against openly gay biologists?”

Thanks, Michael!

Isn’t it ironic?  Or at least “elidgable” for consideration as ironic?

In case anybody’s curious, the ad links here.  That website has a Curious Affection For Capitalizing Everything, but doesn’t seem to need to use an apostrophe to pluralize.

Reporter #1 has done it again.

By day? We are mild-mannered white-collar workers.  By night? We are VIRTUAL FARMERS! … Who don’t understand the rules of Capitalization, apparently.

I’d say they’re confused about punctuation, too!

Okay, it’s actually spelling.  The fabulous  Bobby Tables exclaims, “Metro is run by pirates!”

Thanks, BT!
