Stand-Up

Day 287 (79) – Spell Check

Have you ever been typing, and misspelled a word so bad that even Microsoft Word is like “Dude, I have no idea what you’re trying to say?”  That stupid paper clip pops up, mocking you, “Hi!  You seem to be somewhat of a moron, may I suggest you just try using a smaller word?”  Not cool paper clip.  Not cool.

I was attempting to spell “peruse” for yesterday’s post, and I wasn’t having any luck.  “Paroose?” “Paruse?” “Pu-rooz?”  Finally I just decided to use a different word, and then 10 minutes later my brain decided to come back from break and I somehow remembered how it’s spelled.

The whole ordeal did put a strain on my and paper clip’s relationship.  Who needs the stupid clip anyway, I have a stapler.  I don’t need some smarty pants paper clip making fun of me, when I have good ol’ Chompy the Stapler by my side.
