Spelling Matters

I work often drive past a place called “Kiddi Kollege”. It bothers me. Every time I see it, I cringe.

Kiddi Kollege is a day care, obviously. It’s not an institution of higher learning. I understand alliteration, I really do. It helps sometimes to make a thing sound catchier that it actually is. This isn’t even spelled correctly, though. I don’t mean how the word college starts with “k” like it’s a Kardashian. I’m overlooking that. (Although having the word college in the name of a place does make it seem more important to demonstrate a mastery of basic spelling.) My bigger issue is, who spells kiddi that way?

I would go with kiddie or even kiddy before choosing that spelling. I feel like most people would. Why would you end on an i? That worries me even more because, chances are, it probably was some sort of titling issue and those first two spellings were already taken so they had to spell it that way. That would mean there are at least three daycares operating under that name.

Also the way titling is spelled annoys me. I double checked the spelling on google. That’s correct. Doesn’t it look like it would be pronounced tit-ling? English is so ridiculous.

I digress.

What will the next person have to name his day care, “Children’s Idiot House”? That’s right I said “his”. Men can be anything! No one ever empowers men. It’s a fucking shame.

Actually I think I’d really hate a male day care worker. Even if I had kids. It’s not a molester vibe thing. It’s more of a life choice decision symbolizing that I wouldn’t get along with this person.

Like you know how sometimes you can tell,based off of one decision, that a person would just never be your friend. Some things are just red flags screaming, “Back away! This person is not your cup of tea. Whomever would do whatever it is that they are doing would not get along with me.” Examples of this would be things like a handlebar mustache. Or a nazi tattoo. Or an earnest mullet. Or the decision to live in Las Vegas on purpose.

Also I don’t like male feminists. I find them condescending. I’m not 100% on board with feminists in general these days. That’s a different blog for another day.

What decisions would prevent you from wanting to get to know a person better? What do you think of feminists, male or otherwise? How are you today? In the words of youtuber Drew Monson, “Leave me a fucking comment. I’m very lonely.”
