Recurring and Misspelling are two very commonly misspelled words. You can consider that a subtle joke if you’d like. It doesn’t matter to me. Words with two concurrent same letters so far in this blog post: odd, recurring, misspelling, commonly, matter, concurrent, letters. Make of that what you will. I’m just killing time before I get to my point. I used concurrent wrong, by the way. The word is consecutive. Make of that what you will. Do you need any more proof that I’m running out of stuff to write?
I pulled some writing off my phone recently, because most of what’s on there is related to daily blogging last year. I need to clear it all and organize the files as “posted,” so I don’t try to post them again. To this end, I was checking to see if a couple of these writings were in fact posted. The blog post “Unpacking and Finding” was the first one where I found the misspelling.
“Sure, you can write something terrible. I do it all the time. I might be doing it right now. I think I’m going at a bit of the mone and I’m going at a different group. You can’t get back to when you were inherently bad after you’ve improved though.”
What is mone? It seems like a misspelling of money, but what would that mean in the context of that sentence? Surely, I didn’t mean money, but what did I mean?
Except that I scrolled forward a couple of posts and found “The Weird Product Placement Cycle.” In the blurb at the end, I made the same typo and this time it made sense as “money.”
“… drove up to a few concerts thudding some bass, and then wasted the rest of the mone buying drinks for everybody at Chili’s…”
Is it just a weird coincidence? I still have no idea what the sentence from the first blog post means. You know what this means, right?
Chris McGinty is a blogger who shouldn’t write his blog posts last minute while picking up orders from Whataburger in an attempt to earn mone.
