    Acetylene a-Spellinging

    LOL, the local Craigslists are always good for entertainment watching folks wrestle with the word "acetylene."

    I thought the worst one so far was the guy who confused everyone with trying to sell "a settling" tank.... but this one didn't even get close! Funny thing is, the word's right there in his picture...

    Spelling, grammer, and punctuation are funny things. I saw a yard sale sign that said, all on one line, "Yard Sale! To-day!"

    I just realized something!!! It's not real! It's a cheap knockoff, like a Rollex, or a Guccie. Don't buy it! It's a fake!

    I saw this last night on the Dallas Craigslist. I thought it was funny also. I also think it is funny that they can't spell it but they can get their Dollar numbers correct in their price.

    Acetylene is misspelled pretty much every time I see it, even in abbreviated form.
