Again, this is why literacy should be an important factor when hiring someone for a job that interfaces with the public and is asked to copy stuff down in the lingua franca. The customer asked for the cake to read, "Best Wishes Suzanne" and underneath that "We will miss you." This is what they got instead:

Reminds me of the metal sign I saw in Silver Spring that was up for almost 2 years:

I *just* got this as a genuine request for the College open a chapter of their sorority:

Theta Lambda Delta Sorority, Inc is dedicated to Service, Leadership, and Scholarship and striving to be virtuous women in every aspect of life.e exhibit virtue and moral excellence through good conduct, honesty, and generosity. We offer memebrship for all African American women regardless od eductaional background. We were established as the sister organization of Pi Delta Gamma Fraterity, Inc on July 6, 2007. The brothers envisoned a change within African Merican Greek Fraternitites and Sororitites that could be passed on and shared with a sister organization. I am very interested in starting a chapter at API ecause API is my alumni and I feel a sisterhood is needed as motivation for the young ladies there in attendance. Please email me back if you are interested.

Dear Theta Lamb Delts,

Thank you for considering Bob's College of Discount Knowledge for your Sorority. We are always looking for graduates that know how to show examples of virtue, perhaps encased in an acrylic display case, for your "memebrs," which I assume is a symptom of Parkinson's Disease.

The "OD Eductaion" you mention, is that only a form of treatment of drug overdose or does it also cover drug interaction?

Also, in regards to the "African Mercian Greek" chapters. That's quite a geographic range for the Middle Ages! Do you also accept members from Northumbria, Crete, or Zimbabwe?

Yours in good faith,
Bob's Assistant,
Miss Pellingsand Poorgrammer
