20+ comical grammar mistakes and poor choices of words: 'I can't today. I have to finish some aarons'
There is nothing quite like making an embarrassing mistake in writing because whether you like it or not, that mistake now lives forever. Who knows? Perhaps that grammatical error or that unfortunate phrasing will become so iconic that it will be repurposed into a collection of fails like this one.
When I think about memorable grammatical errors, I cannot help but bring up my friend's final essay for her History of Popular Music course in college. She was not a music major and merely took the class because she was curious and needed one more credit to graduate. When she submitted her final paper, she genuinely thought she did an excellent job comparing the music of the Rolling Stones with the evolution of rock music today. Perhaps she did make a good argument. Unfortunately, however, that argument did not resonate much after her professor noticed that throughout the essay, she repeatedly referred to Mick Jagger as McJagger, as if he were somehow a part of the McDonald's network. Thankfully, she has a good sense of humor about everything and allowed me to bring this up at her wedding years later. I suppose when you make mistakes that egregious and that embarrassing, the best way to forge ahead is to laugh at yourself and to learn.
