Another Sign That the World is Ending

((((BIG SIGH)))

You know World, it is getting really hard to convince my children of the value of an education when I routinely encounter stuff like this:

It’s on the lid of a very expensive jar of organic almond butter (which is part of my new fitness program - more on that another day) and it reads:
“USE BUY 22AUG”.
Really?  USE BUY?  And let me just add here…makers of said expensive, organic almond butter…the folks at Skippy had no problem getting their “sell by” date information spelled correctly, so this just makes you look extra “stoopid” - and now I am starting to doubt whether or not the stuff in your jar is even what it says it is.  If you can’t get the crappy lid copy correct then clearly there are some issues with your quality control.

Next time, if you are going to spell a word on your product incorrectly, at least make it work to your advantage.  I would have been totally content, for example, had your label read “orgasmic almond butter”.

Just sayin’.

    I went to the pediatricians office a few days ago. I read a sign that said “FLU SHOTS” and underneath it read “now avalible” What?? Really?? Where is the spell check? Seriously, if they made that sign in Microsoft Word, there would have been a large red squiggly line underneath that word!! LOL! I pointed it out to the Dr. and he took it down. How did nobody notice that?
