My sorra would shooo if certain people didn’t post here. Indeed, I miss Fuzz, and it hasn’t even been two weeks since he last commented. If Dilly wasn’t commenting because Fuzz hasn’t been around, I would understand it. I think she said she was busy with a project, though.
The State Education dept., or the Stayt Edewekayshon daypartment as it was know four years ago, first realised they had this problem when people spelt their state Misisisipee
that’s not a fail, it’s clear in mississipi there were more typeos in the headlines of newspapers before this article, they have now narrowed it to a single mistake
It was written by the Associated Press, what did you expect? They make up their own news, their own polls and apparently their own spelling as well. Public edumication FTW!
Positive. Google maps has only one Missippi and it’s a street in Altheimer, AR. However, a Google search for Missippi turns up hundreds of web pages that don’t know how to spell.
But in the same state of mind? Disclaimer: I’m originally from Kentucky so I can legally make fun of other people from states with less-than-stellar reputations….
A bus stops and two Italian men get on. They seat themselves, and engage in animated conversation.
The lady sitting behind them ignores their conversation at first, but she listens in horror as one of the men says the following;
“Emma come first. Den I come.
Two asses, dey come together. I come again.
Two asses, dey come together again. I come again and pee twice.
Then I come once-a more.”
“You foul-mouthed swine,” retorted the lady indignantly.
“In this country we don’t talk about our sex lives in public!”
“Hey, coola down lady,” said the man. “Imma just tellun my friend howa ta spella Mississippi.”
Eh, no, a Mississippi native would not say it like that. Been here 24 years; not even close to saying it. Although, I’m pretty sure the worse parts of Mississippi (Jackson, Columbia, Petal, Sumrall, smaller hick places) would probably agree with you.
That makes me feel horrible because I’m from Mississippi! Ah.. but that newspaper probably isn’t from Mississippi itself. Hm. Oh, well. Still feel lousy. Lol.
eveyone does know thats spelling not literacy right?literacy is the abilty to read and stuff and spelling is spelling stuff right…so yeah i could basicly screencap theses comments and post it as a fail

Hahaha, oh the irony. Failmonger.
please stop, you’ll make me cry.
*chants*
Failomnger, failmonger.
BFF is a failmonger too. Haha.
From whence might I procure some fails?
Yuo can catch them from a failmonger, I hear it’s contagious.
———————————-
*establishes quaranteen area*
So would that be all right for adults?
No, but it does convey the idea that the fail disease is contagious.
Admiral Apparent apparently meant “quarantine.”
Spelling FAIL. Unless he wanted to quarantine a bunch of teenagers.
Fall on your sword, Gladiator. I meant exactly what I typed, for the same reason that Loz intentionally misspelled “you”.
On the plus side, it seems your quarantine was affective.
…Oh crap. I dun cots teh diseeze!
Halp!! Sombady best to be callin da CDC and Da HazMat team, cuz weze awl be gottin da diseeze nao!
*arrives after the aftermath* Damn. Zombies. Well luckily I knwo how to take care of this. If only Admiral had set the quarantine quicklier.
Admiral, I did as you have bidden me. I fell on my sword; I laid it flat on the ground and then allowed gravity to run its course.
Comment FAIL.
Too bad this wasn’t about Arkansas’s literacy.
The don’t call them ‘flyover states’ for nothing.
no, it costs 500 yen
Time to launch Missippi’s spelling program
Maybe the person was displexic or something?
aye thingk thats the onli explanashun.
It must have been so painful for you to write that one madame. My sympathies.
I had to lie down afterwards.
Admit it… you really experienced a secret, guilty thrill… like sneaking booze out of your parents’ liquor cabinet…
LOL!! That was so long ago…
*sigh*
I vote for something
peace and love?
Fish and chips
2th and nail.

(*is going to the dentist now* nice knowing you guys
good luck.
Thanks titty. It was ok, but now I can’t smile without looking retarded.
Do you have same dentist than Bush?
I didn’t know you were illiterate, lou!
I am plenty of illiterate. At least in English (not my native language, neither the one I use daily).
Oh, damn you and your legitimate excuses.
You know what they say about excuses?
they don’t ring true in rape charges?
Well, that’s not quite where I was going with that one… Learned that through experience, did you?
Well damn, Lunchbox, don’t leave us hanging! What DO they say about excuses?
*looks up* Hey POB, left hanging again I see.
here’s hoping it wears off eventually…
I didn’t know dentists could fix retarded, I thought they only fixed re-tartar.
*tumbleweed*
lol
Good luck and maybe some Procaine also.
Hope it all turns out well!
The editor is obviously a product of the old literacy program.
So the editor is a machine?! Sounds like Wizard of Oz.
Hhahahahhaa
if you’re going to piss yourself please stand over there.
No! Not here! Stand THERE, for god’s sake!
Not by me, go in the corner
Yep, that corner. Yes, the one with DrDr in it.
No, that’s ME in the corner. And I seem to have lost something…
Wait…which corner? Ohh, the one in the spotlight. You didn’t lose anything…that was just a dream.
*holds ‘something’ in their hand*
My gawd, the trolls are out in force today. Okay, who forgot to bait the troll-traps last night??
maybe they forgot to read the instructions.
Thank god you’re here. It wasn’t me, it was Avis’ turn again…
Hey! It wasn’t my turn!! Fuzz should have done it! Where IS Fuzz anyway?
I’ve been leaving homing beacons for him every few days.
It’s cute how as soon as he disappeared, dilly left too.
She obviously ken lee without him.
Wait… you don’t think he tracked her down and kidnapped her?
He did seem to become a bit obsessive…
My sorra would shooo if certain people didn’t post here. Indeed, I miss Fuzz, and it hasn’t even been two weeks since he last commented. If Dilly wasn’t commenting because Fuzz hasn’t been around, I would understand it. I think she said she was busy with a project, though.
Fuzz MADE her type that. While he had her gagged.
I guess the “don’t mention their name unless you want them to show up” rule only applies to trolls.
I haven’t heard from Fuzz either. I suspect both he and Dilly are on a tropical beach somewhere sipping Mai Tais and gettin’ naughty.
At least, I like to think they are.
Oh I was kinda curious how Loz knew she was gagged.
… but not by much.
It depends. Headline 2 years ago was: “Missips going lunchin pogram to inpovre literaci”.
So, big improvement FTW!
The State Education dept., or the Stayt Edewekayshon daypartment as it was know four years ago, first realised they had this problem when people spelt their state Misisisipee

….By day, Name (required) comments on Failblog, but at night, (s)he is-
Missy sissy pee!

i lol’d
Gee, stereotypes are SO easy!
Stereotyping is easy, even a caveman could do it!
Irony at its finest!
that’s not a fail, it’s clear in mississipi there were more typeos in the headlines of newspapers before this article, they have now narrowed it to a single mistake
I think I’ve just norrowed something down to a single mistake.
ZING!!!!
Oh c’mon! Noone knows how to spell Misispii! Even George W. Bush can’t spell that.
No one can Phaet, let alone spell it.
intelligent
It was written by the Associated Press, what did you expect? They make up their own news, their own polls and apparently their own spelling as well. Public edumication FTW!
Now that’s ironic.
Are we sure they are actually talking about “Mississippi” and not some town called Missippi? It just seems this is too stupid even for the AP.
Positive. Google maps has only one Missippi and it’s a street in Altheimer, AR. However, a Google search for Missippi turns up hundreds of web pages that don’t know how to spell.
Not to mention, it’s unlikely that the AP would run an article about a literacy program in a town no one’s heard of.
Missippi -
This is how southern people say and sometimes write Mississippi; Mississippi-iss=Missippi
Hey y’all!! I’m from Missippi.
Hey, from where I came from, we eat babies all the time.
That’s one of the better brands the local supermarkets stock.
[not]
The baby fail is down the corridor, second on the left.
Right next to the smoked salmon.
I think qwerty’s gimmick has grown on me to the point that it has become my SOI SOI SOI.
HAHA freakin Way to go Random-Magoo!
Silly wank.
Just… wow. Spellchecker not catch that?
Spellcheck fail
IMPROVMENT WIN. last time they mispelled it and look liked: Canada
:Canadian:.
Brain required to understand what spell checker is, how to operate it, and why it wants to correct things
I find it funny that Misspell is suggested by spellcheck as a replacement word for Missippi.
Gee, I guess they didn’t play that kids’ chanting game that actually forces you to spell “Mississippi”.
‘Course, I mistyped on one of my lolz and someone favourited it before I noticed .. DOH!
!
This is very sad for me, because I live in Alabama. We are only 2 states away from them.
But in the same state of mind? Disclaimer: I’m originally from Kentucky so I can legally make fun of other people from states with less-than-stellar reputations….
And when does Alabama start their geography program? You should probably enroll…
Wow, geography fail.
Wow, that was a sense of humor fail guys.
Mrs. Sippy has been teaching kids for long enough. Let her daughter follow in her noble footsteps.
A bus stops and two Italian men get on. They seat themselves, and engage in animated conversation.
The lady sitting behind them ignores their conversation at first, but she listens in horror as one of the men says the following;

“Hey, coola down lady,” said the man. “Imma just tellun my friend howa ta spella Mississippi.”
That HAS to be fake.
*wonders how bad it was before, if this is an improvement*
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.
Ewe said it.
FIRST!
LAST!
^– I refute it thus!
Hooked on Phonics: Not so great, actually.
Actually the spelling’s phonetically correct as a Mississippi native would say it. This might be a phonics win.
I had to read this thing out loud about 8 times before finally getting that Mississippi was spelled wrong. lol.
Eh, no, a Mississippi native would not say it like that. Been here 24 years; not even close to saying it. Although, I’m pretty sure the worse parts of Mississippi (Jackson, Columbia, Petal, Sumrall, smaller hick places) would probably agree with you.
Hooked on Phonics…is that what they’re calling it now?
“Missippi”. It would effectively shorten the seconds.
You can use California, too.
Sinceramente me parece una CHORRADA de FAIL
a ver quien cojones es el listo que se acuerda de escribir correctamente la palabra
obviously not improved enough.
Them teechers aint hardly lernt me nothing.
Perhaps the Associated Press needs to get together with whoever improved the “Missippi” literacy program…
That makes me feel horrible because I’m from Mississippi! Ah.. but that newspaper probably isn’t from Mississippi itself. Hm. Oh, well. Still feel lousy. Lol.
Big improvement! Last year they only got to Mippi
mississippi* programme*
eveyone does know thats spelling not literacy right?literacy is the abilty to read and stuff and spelling is spelling stuff right…so yeah i could basicly screencap theses comments and post it as a fail
yep
How is this fail? Miss Ippi is improving her literacy skills, so?
literacy fail, irony win
not enough room for the whole word?
yeah
goooooooooooood
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
