The Spellcheck Family Before 1882 spelling errors were relatively common in the United States, that was until the Spelczek family immigrated to the USA from Poland. The Spelczeks traveled all across the USA in a horseless carriage correcting the typos on store signs.

After she fell, she looked up at the guy responsible for pushinโ€ฆ

A Polish guy walked into a bar... ... in Poland. He announced that he had withdrawn his entire fortune, 100,000 zlotys, from the bank, invested it in gold bars, and put them into a safe in his house. This was back when a zloty was worth something, so the other patrons immediately started to argue with him: ""You're an idiot! What if you get robbed? It's much safer in the bank."" ""The banks are about to fail,"" he responded. ""But they can't fail, they're backed by the Polish government!"" ""...โ€ฆ
