You can go for the wryly pensive face: 🤔 ‘hmm’

Bob, if there IS an irony-emoji, I’d like to use it for one of my posts in this thread, where I totally missed a typo and did not go back to correct.

I’ve missed typos, too. The mind sets up expectations for what it thinks the the eye should see. But I agree that this is a pretty egregious one to miss!

That kind of typo gets past proofreaders (me? guilty as charged . . .) all the time, but usually in the company of thousands of perfectly sound words that cover for the miscreant. ‘Nope, no typos here, boss. Look! An aardvark . . .’ You’d have to have been looking the other way pretty hard to have missed this one on its lonesome! I mastered reading cursive script at the age of 7 or 8, so even in the climate of today’s meta-literacies that can’t be the culprit.

Every other bride or MOTB or relative has just glanced at the script and as you say, jammed them into the ground, and all the guests are too polite to say anything, if *they* even noticed…

OK maybe not. But it’s amusing to think about.

True, Bob. Any party featuring yardwork couldn’t help but be fun.
