Me and my OCD

Posted by: Justin In: Don't Label Me!

This kind of shit pisses me off.

I stared at this sign during the entire train ride home the other day, the big ol’ grammar error irritating me more than the smell of the drunk homeless guy who practically gave me a lap dance as he plopped down in the vacant seat next to me.

Vandalizes this, bitch.

"to ...vandalizes TriMet property"

Wonder if they’d consider it vandalizing TriMet property if I busted out the big fucking red pen and corrected the sign?

I waw flipping through the brochure of one of the professional organizations today while waiting for my black beans and rice to heat up and a major typo struck my attention. Apparently, administartive staff came join this group at half price.

Yor typo can see getting overlooked, but it shouldn’t. Administartive shouldn’t have even made it past spell check. Any decent page design software should include spell check.

Jacob’s an asshole.

And I’m going to start carrying a red Sharpie just for such occasions. It’s a public service, not vandalism.

I really shouldn’t try to post comments about typos with my cell phone. That was horrendous.

I’d correct the shit out of it. Makes us all look stupid.

Worse typo I ever saw? Some burger joint’s marquee which said “try are burgers.” Gah.
