Hilarious Spelling Fails That Prove The Power of Proofreading

People Debate Which Color Folder Correlates To Which Subjects in School
When you’re in high school, you have very little freedom. One of the few choices you can make for yourself is which trapper keeper you get from Staples.

Bloody Brilliant British Images
British people get a lot of slack from Americans online. They get roasted for their teeth, food, and accents in ways that nearly always come off as hacky. Like we get it, Brits put peas and beans on foods that are largely incomprehensible to the Yankee mind and stomach, but can we let it rest? …
