it is very impotent.

this is great:

it reminds me…

in grade 10, i wrote a paper for my english media class. i can’t remember what it was on (probably over-analyzing the significance of an advertisement or possibly pointing out the precision of its parody), but i remember this time i was quite happy with what had come of my chronic literary constipation. it was and still is extremely rare that i feel satisfied with any of my writing, but this one seemed to be a relatively unobstructed, so to speak, exercise. that was, of course, until it was returned to me and one typo was circled on page 2: ‘pubic’ instead of ‘public’. for once i didn’t shudder in horror over the mistake, i laughed. i laughed hard. particularly at my teacher’s note: ‘rather unfortunate typo.’ mr. twight always had a good sense of humour.
