How do I put it?

By weswithaute - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - Australia

Today, my daughter asked me how to spell "Orange". "O-R-A-N-G-E," I replied. Without missing a beat, she says, "No, I mean the colour, not the fruit." She's 16. FML

I can see where she gets her spelling skills from. "colour" is spelled C-O-L-O-R

Actually the rest of the world does spell it C.O.L.O.U.R . They actually dumbed it down in America to C.O.L.O.R so the Americans can sound it out :P

You raised her. Try helping with homework, and checking the report card.
