GREAT MOMENTS IN ROCK HISTORY
Bright Eyes: "Now all anyone's listening for are the mistakes."
(trumpet player screws up)
Trumpet player: "Oh! I'm sorry!"
Bright Eyes: "No, it's ok it's ok. 1-2-3, 1-2-3..."

Probably heard that 200 times by now, and it still makes me smile. I hope it was fake, and that the poor trumpet player didn't actually get fired. But I guess if she did, Bright Eyes did have just cause. He did just say all anyone was listening for were the mistafes.
What the hell? "Mistafes"?

Copy editor: Oh! I'm sorry!

Sorry? SORRY?
I hire you as the copy editor for this music countdown blog of renown, and you let a bush league typo like "mistafes" get through? You thank that's ok?

Copy editor: In fairness sir, you are a terrible typist. You make a lot of typos. Sometimes one might slip through. Just there, you typed "thank" instead of "think".

No I didn't.

Copy editor:  And that I can understand, I mean you wouldn't get the little red line under the word to alert you to the typo. But, really sir, "mistafes" is all on you. Seriously, the k isn't really even that close to the f on the keyboard. You basically need to either try to type a word that incorrectly or be having a stroke.

You use too many adverbs.
1-2-3, 1-2-3...
