    At uni, a teacher of mine once wrote on the blackboard:

    Paris in the
    the spring
    

    and then had a bunch of people read it out loud. I didn’t get to read it out but the entire time this was going on I was sitting there, questioning my sanity because none of the people chosen to read seemed to notice the second “the”.

    That said, I’ve had a few glasses so fuck you.

      I love this. Between the people who didn’t notice it the same way I absolutely would not have, and the people who just say what obviously was intended, this could go forever and drive a couple of people absolutely insane.
