How old was the little girl? If she was 4 or so, mis-copying the word is excusable. If 10 or 11 ... maybe not.

Don't you know that most parents consider their children, particularly if they're an only child, to be a child prodigy?

Unlike the hapless Obama, Trump demonstrates he knows how to get Europe to drop it's long standing tariffs against American products including cars. It's = it is. It's SO difficult to grasp the concept, apparently!

From a Facebook post about the reality tv show Naked & Afraid, regarding what the survivalists do to protect themselves from mosquitoes in the jungle.

They used the stuff of There Four Father plants an Stuff

Makes me wonder how some people can function day to day.
Makes me worry about the demographic I must belong to to watch that show!

I've seen the advertisements and opted out ... pretty much visually unappealing.

I just found this one over on a discussion of the necessity of speed humps or bumps, and found myself chuckling. I'm sure the guy who posted it just made a mistake because otherwise his post sounded fine. Here goes:

Some people fly around curves of a parking garage narrowly hitting pedestrians.

I suppose that's better than a full-bore rundown ....
