Doesn't anyone use proofreaders anymore?
 

Headline on Yahoo home page

"Trump sews new conflict."

Who knew, he is one of us. I think they meant "sows" however. They should be embarrassed.

:D ​the old auto correct strikes again and no one bothered to re-read it before printing.

yep, you gotta love idiots! sorry, Yes, you have to love idiots!

ptquilts, every time I read the newspaper I feel like taking a red felt pen and circling all the grammar errors and typos.... nice to know I'm not the only one. :D and I figured out how to shut off the auto correct on my ipad, it was just too annoying. Sometimes when I type I make a mistake and I'm okay with that; but for the machine to be telling me what I must be trying to say was a little too much.

Funny, I doubt if he even know how to thread a sewing machine.

I ordered business cards. My last name only has 4 letters. I sent the cards back twice; I proofread twice. I know how to spell my last name. They got upset because I wouldn't accept an "s" at the end of my name. Went to another place and got a better deal and no hassle.
I too half to laugh when the local newspaper holds spelling bees and send the kids to nationals. I sent a letter to the paper and told them they really needed to have these kids proofread the newspaper. Obviously, their employees never were in a spelling bee or even had an inclination what it was. the least they could do was use autocorrect.

LOL! "Half to laugh"? Or "have" to laugh?

Sure he does...he just yells at it and the machine threads itself. :)

OR

is that Chuck Norris who does that? :)

I prefer typos to bad formatting. I doubt no one under 30 knows how to indent or why or when.

One of the grammatical errors that drives me crazy is the misuse of "brought". Ex: I brought my sewing machine to the shop. It should be "I took my machine to the shop." I, too, spot all the errors in the paper; even the large type headlines are not exempt. I did teach language arts for a hundred years and do know the rules!!!
