Too many typo regrets! They amuse me not.

Line #129 has a typo in it.

My friend regrets that his cousin visiting from out of town was briefly under the impression that the "Stranger regrets pullout" is somehow related to interrupted anonymous sex at that park by the art museum on 15th Ave.

I regret that this was such a boring post. I further regret that I kept reading it in hopes that it might suddenly turn funny or interesting. Finally, I regret that I was wrong about that.

I regret always forgetting to submit my annual Slogger regrets.

I regret spending the time to read that long-ass post, even with all the good jokes. Unfortunately, I'll have to wait a year to include that regret on a similar list.

Hmm, I'm a fan of the right to suicide. I try to help create a world in which people will love existence enough to want to stick around, but I strongly discourage any attempt to directly 'stop suicide' (I am, for example, a fan and supporter of It Gets Better, as that's about correcting an inaccurately-hopeless vision of life that makes sexually-marginalized teens commit suicide at a higher rate than others, as well as the efforts inspired by IGB to make it better in high schools). Bodily autonomy means the ability to harm oneself as well as help oneself. I'd urge Seling (and her husband, also possibly a Seling) to look at the event as someone who found this world too horrible to live in no longer having to do so. It's not sad that she died, it's sad that she found herself in an intolerable state of existence. The suicide isn't the tragedy, everything else is. What we can do to help people like that woman is to make the world less awful, and make the positions of everyone stuck inhabiting an awful world a little better.

("regrets the she")

Thanks, that was really fun.

Jen Graves regrets that Roger Ebert's February 29 review claims that "every player" on the football team documented in the film "has a parent who has been behind bars." Ms. Graves even e-mailed Mr. Ebert herself to ask him to correct this, which he still has not done. Since these are real families, it's a glaring error.

...and libel

When I saw the title on the home page, I was certain it was a scoop about someone on the Texas Department of Corrections apologizing for ... you know ... mistakes with the death penalty thingee.

I regret the error.

Jesus, you guys need a new copy editor.

Do you hear that, Jesus? Heaven needs a new copy editor. That sounds like bad career news for the Pope.

I regret that I cannot take the 12 seconds to reread my comments before posting them, and the many typos this causes.

I regret my fascination with Ellipsis and my inability to avoid using 18 of them in a comment.

I regret that one time I spent a post defending Mitt Romney for something or other.

I regret that there is no font style to easily show sarcasm.

I also regret YGBKM.

I guess Dan Savage doesn't regret jack shit.

Errors in usage, spelling and grammar are NOT typos, folks. They are indicative of sloppy work and a lack of respect for readers.

It would appear that the typo baton has been passed from the Grauniad to the Stargner. But take solace, Stranger copy editors and proofreaders: according to Wikipedia, "One of [the Guardian's] writers, Keith Devlin, suggested that the high number of observed misprints was due more to the quality of the readership than their greater frequency."

I was expecting Dan Savage to regret that he hasn't finished his book yet.

The regrets issue is always a favorite of mine and I regret not being able to get a paper copy of it every year.

Also, I'm amazed you can't find some shop that will beat $30 for a lens cover.

@21 You're unregistered and therefore your regret is invalid.

I regret taking any post by liberty4all even remotely seriously.

Next year, Anna, you can regret saying that email was "pretty new" in 1997. It may not have been well-known to the masses until HTML came along, but it was invented in the 1970s.

Google "ARPANET," which apparently is something else on your "never heard of 'em" list. Bonus ARPANET fun: find out why Al Gore was NOT lying when he said "I helped create the Internet," and how gross Faux Neuz' distortion of that statement was.
