Subj: Inauguration Poster
Top ten reasons you should hire a copy editor:
- No one is perfect.
- Only copy editors care.
- Intersection of red tie, white shirt, and the word to make the mistake hard to catch.
- Mistakes make you look incompetent.
- You wanted to charge people $16.95 for this joke??
- How much money did we taxpayers lay down for posters you sent to recycling? Related: how large was the print run?
- Actually, $16.95 is not so bad for this collector’s item – send me two.
- The Donald has such a nice smile here. Keep up the entertainment!
- The poster looks so official and friendly, our big brother in the White House, but behind the curtain are a bunch of hamsters who run in their wheels until some food pellets drop out.
- Copy editors are friendly people who won’t bother you, but they keep you out of trouble. Make one of them your next celebrity apprentice.
That’s it! Suitable for framing, man!
