I was playing a game of Dota just now and had been watching the movie Charlie Bartlett on Showtime. Along the way the movie ended and it switched onto one of those high production value (relatively) softcore porno’s. I started paying attention when my game ended and they were doing a scene where the actress (female pornstar) has a conversation online with a random guy. I had two problems with this. The first being that the conversation was talking place on an open word document and you could see her typing both parts of the conversation. I mean really. Example follows:
Roan:
Who is going to keep you safe when I’m gone?
Trish:
My stocker.
Which leads me to my second point, the character types in “stocker” when she meant “stalker”. And I know this is true instead of her (still incorrectly) intending something along the lines of a person who uses the stock market because of the continuing portion of the conversation.
Trish: Yea, my stocker, he’s been following me around the past few days and making sure that I’m safe.
It kind of astounds me that of all the people that had gone into producing this movie, NO ONE, was able to correctly spell “stalker”.
