Spelling mistakes
I must shamefacedly admit my capacity to spell correctly laisse à désirer both in French and in English.
Dana pointed out one mistake in No breaks, breaks for brakes, demonstrating my ineptitude handling even the lowest form of humor.
Humorlessness looks okay (OK?, O.K.?) to me. Inability to spell does not. I earn a living attempting to write non-fiction.
Life eventually wears down hubris, demonstrating total incompetence until you admit it through your tears and both of you look at your shoes. Too bad Larry Wall's right -- "The three chief virtues of a programmer are: Laziness, Impatience and Hubris." We need hubris to get something done.
