This might not be considered writing, but did anyone ever notice that the 'number of posts' indicator uses a comma to count the thousands, but the reputation points don't?

I guess it's stupid, but it has always bugged me!

(I like consistency)

The frozen shrimps bought from the supermarket are all nicely separated one from another. When I put defrozen shrimps in the freezer, they all get frozen together in lumps. Is there something special that

Defrozen????

CAVEAT: This is not an original faux pas, as it was posted on my Facebook news feed, but it was so funny I shared it:

"I hate spelling errors. You mix up two letters and your whole post is urined."

A couple went through the drive-through and one of their items was a box of 20 Chicken McNuggets. I was working at the counter. After the couple got their food, the man came back in. He handed me an empty box and said "they didn't give us any Chicken McNuggets!!!"

I was only 16 at the time and I knew the guy was full of carp. There is no way they would have given out a completely empty box.


I think he was actually full of McNuggets!!

Not a huge thing, but it really bothers me when the Star Spangled Banner is sung and they mispronounce "Perilous". Most sing "Per-Uh-Lis" rather than "Per-Ih-Lus".

So freaking petty, but it drives me nuts.

Maybe not the correct place to put this, please be gentle with me.

Probably. If she gets a Susan Powter, no one will notice.
