Does Merriam-Webster have a SWAT team?
Metro Pike Center, Rockville, Md.
When I'm the Supreme All-Powerful Dictator of the Metro Area (any day now...), I'll force every sign factory, shop and shoppe to hire a full-time copy editor.

What if the resident dentist is Dennis I. Smily, DDS? I'm not saying, I'm just saying...
I'm all for an M-W task force, but careful with those itchy trigger fingers!

I checked, actually.

I had a friend who used to go to a Dr. Smiley, or Smily. It very well might be him. Dentists are usually decent spellers, I think, at least better than your average "mechanic's".

Hooray for fact-checking.
As my dad always said when I was little and correcting other kids on the playground, it's not that I want to make other people look bad, it's that I want everyone to be right. And yes, that really happened. A lot.
Btw, I got here during the Most Loathsome week(s), and kept lurking. Hope that's ok.

I don't have a picture of it for proof, but if you ever drive down Mount Vernon Avenue in Arlandria, stop by the "Wafle Shop" for breakfast.
