They really say that?
Dang, their graphics department should have caught that.
I bought an office chair at Walmart recently, and on the box artwork, there was a panel that contained the words "Insert Spanish Translated Text Here".
And I just received a delivery of "No Pakring" signs for our event business.

LOL I spent the last 24 1/2 years of working in the highway Traffic safety Business. We made lots of traffic signs. I have seen some horrible spelling errors. I caught most before they left the shop, but every once in awhile I'd go into a customers office and see a sign they just received with a spelling error in it. I'd just pick it up and bring it back to the shop for repair or replacement.
I've seen street departments using big stencils to paint on the highway and paint SHCOOL on the street in front of a school in 6' high letters.

Not sure why anyone would still use a K&N oil filter at this point.
Order this 15010-MCE-H51 and be done.

...and we don't need no thought control!
I get a huge kick out of all of this. I've spent the last 30 years as a technical writer in the aerospace/aviation biz and I've seen some doozies! None of them done by me, of course. Someone should invent a spell checker you can plug into your brain. Hmmm, maybe...

Some people have them. They're called proof readers.
