...that I've had a post with Buffy the Vampire Slayer spelled as Bufty the Vampire Slayer up for four days.  o_O

Oh, Bufty. 

That doesn't have quite the same ring.  :P

:o You've fallen victim to the theory that we perceive whole words, not the letters. Popular example:

"i cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid; aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in waht oerdr the ltteres in a wrod are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae.

The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it whotuit a pboerlm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt!"

*sighs* Which still doesn't explain my prior "waist" issue. LOL

*double sigh* I just tried to spellcheck this mess. *head to desk*
