Some posts just write themselves.

Take this one, for instance. The image you see above is an actual fax received today at my job. (Click the image for a larger size.) The company's name and information have been changed to protect the guilty but the rest is as real as you can get. All markings in red were appended by the group of miscreants I call friends/coworkers. Mad props to Markoni for creating the final image.

This editing of their fax was originally intended to be sent back to the good people at "Top Roofing", though we were unable to determine a real fax number or e-mail address to which to send our correspondence. This is a shame as we really wanted to assist this company in all future endeavors. We're sticklers for proper punctuation, spelling, and grammar and wanted to ensure that "Top Roofing" excelled at all of the above.

Not that I would want to question the intergrity of certtfed specialists such as "Top Roofing". Indeed, without their applled specilty, I'm not certain whether or not we'd be able to have all of our reaires completely in a timly mannnr. Bare in mined, this is not a condomnation of thier abilties, meerly us pionting out som of the more ovbious and glarng speling erors that we happpened across.

Make of this what you will, but I'd be hard pressed to take any business seriously that managed TWELVE errors in a single page. Who is their proofreader, Helen Keller?

For the time being we'll just have to score them with an F, for EPIC PHAIL.
