I’m going to hell for snickering.

its misspelled

well, it would help if the word was spelled right to begin with…so I’m kind of lost about what definition your pointing to.

that’s ok… i’m indestructable…

… I think the point is that it’s mispelled and therefore doesn’t have a meaning.. ya that’s pretty brutal
Posted on 03-27-2006 23:22:45 by CS Williams
I think the point was that they “failed the first time” while spelling it. My bet is it’s on purpose.

Maddy – I strongly suspect penski was being ironic 😛

I blame bad spelling!

I don’t get the “on purpose” vibe from this at all. Just the “sad” vibe.

A tattooist where I go almost did a similar thing. It took another tattooist (not even the customer noticed) to point out he was missing a “D” lol…
Posted on 03-29-2006 15:29:17 by not sure
I think it’s on purpose because in the gallery where it’s posted the word is spelled correctly in the captions but in quotations.

Reminds me of a girl I know who was supposed to have “snow angel” written across her back and didn’t notice that she was actually proclaiming to be a “snow angle” until she got home. Hopefully this wasn’t quite like that.
