The The Impotence of Proofreading by Taylor Mali

My daughter played this youtube clip to me yesterday and I was crying with laughter. It is hysterical. I am a serial proofreader and still misspell words and mess up on grammar. This put it all in perspective.

 It  is called "slam poetry" . It is only 2 minutes so take time to listen and enjoy. [Does contain adult humor]
