Overlooked bringing 200 Bullets to a pistol tournament. = It seems no matter how hard I try to prepare I keep fucking it up.
I ran out of ammo with 2 stages to go!! Every contest I am unprepared in some significant way.
Placed 26th out of 26

My business has been with the same regional bank for a while. I kinda liked supporting a smaller, local-ish bank. They used to be consistent and fine; we're mostly just using them for basic stuff - writing checks, etc. But now they fuck something up pretty much every month. This month, they deposited a check but made a mistake on the amount by $0.73. Took me for fucking ever to track down the mistake so I could get my books to balance. I should probably just pay a book keeper to do this shit.

Affect and effect is not easy. I mean I know the difference but I have to stop sometimes. Especially affected/effected.

^^right; also hard to get around needing them, and when somebody uses those incorrectly I don’t think less of them....
Allude and elude are both (perfectly fine, but) unnecessary words in most contexts. Mixing them up seems more egregious.focus.

I’m gonna start using my own word, ‘ollude’.
