Another of my husband’s darling students (see previous story), on a geography test, wrote that the capital of North Dakota was not Bismarck, but “Bichmark.”

This student is just a notoriously bad speller. If it was intentional, she would have included the “t.” If she had realized, I’m sure she’d feel sheepish and then have a little chuckle too.

Bichmark? Isn’t that the red mark on your face after being slapped by a Kardashian? (I think that’s how they define it on TMZ.) Great post!

I have been there. My husband went to college in Jamestown. It’s nothing personal, I assure you.
