How do I put it?

By weswithaute - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - Australia

Today, my daughter asked me how to spell "Orange". "O-R-A-N-G-E," I replied. Without missing a beat, she says, "No, I mean the colour, not the fruit." She's 16. FML

Every time I asked my folks how a certain word was spelled, they'd hand me a dictionary and make me look it up. Look on the brighter side, at least she knows how to spell "orange" the fruit.(:

Considering her mother misspelled "color" I'm not surprised at your findings...

99-That's how you spell color in English speaking foreign countries. Like Australia (where she is from).

Lol I see 2 FMLs in this post. That, and the fact that she couldn't spell orange in the first place. Facepalm
