Misheart word of the day

[kestrell]

I am still piecing together fragments of Greek poetry, although I did recover enough sanity to ask Alexx if he would visually proofread the text at some point, because I'm only on page eighty.

What I heard:
38 Loving girls more than Jell-O.

What is actually printed in the text:
38 Loving girls more than Gello.

Yes, that Greek Jello is so delicious, with the thyme and oregano.

Yay for intermittent sanity, and Alexx.

[kestrell]

Oh, and I completely forgot to mention that this fragment is by Sappho, so it might well suggest female wrestling in Jell-O.

[rinue]

I prefer the Jell-O version superior. Because Jell-O is amazing, and so are girls.

[kestrell]

I have frequently found that what I mishear possesses greater whimsicality than the actual source of that mishearing.

[rinue]

I think genius isn't so much about making fewer mistakes, but making more interesting mistakes than most people.

[kestrell]

I like that!
