Defendant: An unknown Macy’s window dresser.
Count 1: Improper word usage.
Count 2: Negligence with regard to name-checking Jeffrey Sebelia.
Count 3: Failure to proofread in earnest prior to affixing words to glass.
Report: Inspired by Dateline’s To Catch A Predator, Officer Anderson scours the internet looking for grammatical perversion and indecent proofreading. While on a routine patrol he discovered this infraction captured by Flickr member jennibong – a photographer who is presumably either of Asian descent or loves weed. Whether Ms. Jennibong realized she was apprehending bad proofreading is hard to say, as she seems to have a penchant for taking pictures of windows.
Fine: $150 Macy’s gift card to be left in the back of a drawer and forgotten, as is expected of all gift cards.

I started Banterist in 2003 after this conversation with my cat. It led to all sorts of good things.
I can’t say that this surprises me. Macys is just up the block from my office, and they frequently have spelling errors in their window displays. One year they had the “100 years of Macys in Herald Square” display (or something like that.) There was a huge timeline on the glass, and it contained dozens of spelling mistakes.
