I always have to laugh when Word tells me how to write my essays
Apparently now they're telling me how to think! I'm doing some summer work for my AP Microeconomics class, and I'm talking about the public goods the government OFFERS to businesses which can't really be denied or payed for, sort of like a lighthouse if that makes sense without reading the book. But I still found this funny how Word is trying to subliminally tell me that our government is inactive.

1. OMG.
:rofl:

Also I love it when it tells you did not spell your last name correctly when it's a less common name like "Schwitzer" or something...
