The witching hour

By Donny - 04/08/2011 20:49 - United States

Today, severely tired and pulling an all-nighter, I was editing documents at work. Eventually the words blurred together and "which" began to look funny, so I corrected them. I realized too late that I'd turned in the company's brochure with every "which" spelt as "witch". FML

who doesnt use spellcheck? now make me a sandwitch.

Eye hate win people get words mixed up with other words that sound alike. That's why eye make shirt that eye use the write words. Eye like talking better then typing because you can here what they say without having second guesses. Eye really think it is stupid win people can make a simple sentence, not make munch cents at all. Eye hope win eye ham hold enough two have a sun, his generation would no the difference of words that sound alike.

Hopefully it's saved somewhere and somebody catches it before they send it off to press... Otherwise you might not be proofreading things much longer.

Agh I better start on me potions!

Hahaha! Hopefully your boss can understand!

Well, your situation doesn't seem that out of the question considering you don't know how to spell spelled.

Both are perfectly correct spellings. "Spelt" is just rarer than "spelled".

Sweet Christ ... I can understand misinterpreting when to use the proper spelling with "your"/"you're" ... maybe even "to"/"too" ... But you gotta be a special kind of stupid to confuse & incorrectly spell "which" as "witch" (especially since outside of Halloween, Salem & the occasional in-law; "witch" rarely comes into play.)

Have you ever pulled an all-nighter NotSoSmooth ? You focus on your work so much in order to stay awake that the details can often take a hike. Witch for which is pretty severe, but going round the clock at work is too, especially without coffee, especially with your boss breathing down your neck. Figuratively of course for that last one.
