When you are sitting in class, taking notes ever so diligently, and you come across a word that you're not sure how to spell. i.e. genealogy. There are several options in such a crisis:
- Suddenly switch to a much smaller, sloppier, more intellectual font.
- Be ambiguous with your letters. Make the tail of the 'a' so small, or the 'o' so lopsided, that it could go both ways. (Yeah).
- My personal favorite: Choose an opportune moment to lay your pen down as nonchalantly as possible over the offending word. Works every time.
Inspiration credit: Miguel Covarrubias for being the first to admit he does this too.
GeneOlogy...right?
ReplyDeleteLOL story of my roma tre student life. i don't know how to spell half the italian words my prof says so i just am extra sloppy with my writing. works well cuz i write in cursive anyway, so people will just think i'm being extra flowery with my cursive that day.
ReplyDeleteNope it's spelled right in the post. Took like three tries though.
