    King of Stupid needs to follow the rules. We can all poke fun at each others’ spelling and grammar (not him) cuz we all know:
    1- the inside joke;
    2- that we really are literate (despite the occasional SNAFU);
    3- that none of us will cry to mom (Helen Killer) when we get rude, crude and socially unacceptable.

    Some spell checks would flag it as a commonly misused word, but teh is a real word:

    Te

    hmm I dunno guys. “g” and “d” are not next to each other on the keyboard so there is a chance this dude(tte) wrote “king” intentionally. (You know school slang changes on a per second basis). That said it is still douchebagishly lame that (s)he cried to HK in an email about the spelling of whimsical… do your homework before you criticize the Royal Family of Criticizers, oh Protector of Whimsical.

    Hi, everyone. Allow me to introduce myself as none other than your King (in this case let’s make it Queen) of Stupid. I didn’t intend to come across as indignant, self-righteous, or any of the other flattering adjectives I’ve seen in the last 70-some comments. But I’ll be the first to admit I deserve it, and I honestly got a good laugh reading through them after I got past the initial shock. I guess when I saw “whimsicle”…

    it just put me in mind of all the adults I see who can’t spell worth shit (yes, king was a simple typo), and kind of just sent off the email without thinking. Right after I sent it I thought, “Why did I do that, it’s probably intentional.” So, maybe I have blonde moments. And I’m sure we’ve all put our foot in our mouth or done something stupid like this at some point. So, I’m not ashamed to admit it was me and I’ll accept my crown of stupid.
