I just came across something that broke my brain: the discovery that there are apparently millions of people out there who don't know how to spell the simple word dilemma, and that that egregious and etymology-denying misspelling has been propagated and promulgated since long before the coming of that amazing misinformation-spreading tool known as Teh Interwebs. One example amongst many:

That. Breaks. My. Brain. It's like discovering that millions of people claim to have been taught that the correct spelling of "black" is blakc. WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF?!?!?!

Actually, I am now going to work. But I'll take my mountain with me.
