You know...with the nice coat and all?
I'm sure two Canadians can make a child that looks that ugly.
The monkey appears to be Canadian.

the little guy in its little coat I almost spit Pepsi all over my desk. Thanks for that
I've seen people misspell "lose" as "loose" around here, and elsewhere, with some frequency. Never, however, have I seen it the other way around.
Contaminate/contaminant.
Lose/loose.
There are plenty more, but those are the ones that make me grind my teeth.
... but many spell it "lead" because it sounds like the the soft, toxic metal "lead" (i.e., Pb on the periodic table).
Don't even get me started on its/it's, their/there/they're, and you're/your. The fact that people on these boards get those wrong makes me weep for the future.
I posit that this (to me) inexplicable spelling/grammar mistake is made more out of proportion to intelligence than perhaps any other (as opposed to, for instance, using an apostrophe in the pluralization of a word, a sure sign of fatal ignorance unquestionably accentuated by at least a decade of trailer-park life).
