Re: Haute Hippie Tribe Message T-Shirt

Just an fyi, I contacted the Moderators on the Customer Care thread about the mistake.  They appreciated the heads-up and will contact the team.  My good deed for the day!

That's pretty bad but just as bad was a week or 2 ago when neither Amy nor Lori could pronounce the color of a top. At least Amy admitted she hadn't a clue but Lori proclaimed, with some authority, anemone is pronounced Ann Uh Moe Knee!

Didn't anyone talking into their ears know the correct pronunciation??


@Andreatoo I heard it.  I think it was ochre which is like a yellow-y mustard-y color, not to be confused with the food, okra.


@BarbiHollywood 

I did not hear the ochre mistake. It was 'anemone' that drove me crazy

Re: Haute Hippie Tribe Message T-Shirt

I've heard the ochre/okra situation several times, throughout a couple of years or so.  

 

Not sure 'who', 'where', 'why', etc. etc. 

 

Well, some folks aren't familiar with various artists' paint colors or names of food(s).

Re: Haute Hippie Tribe Message T-Shirt

I do expect that some folks don't know that particular flower.  

 

I can't even pronounce it, lol.  (I'm serious).  Something wrong with my mouth/vocal muscles.

You're right!   

 

I totally forgot about the one that lives in the ocean!

Good catch, @BarbiHollywood !

Somebody must have been drinking one when they designed this!


@Harpa 

 

Someone in China had a visual disacuity that day or either the designer misspelled it.  I see that in business so often.  It used to bother me but since I was told by the ivy league English specialists that as long as you know what they are talking about, because there are so many languages spoken in this country that we cannot expect everyone to speak it as we do and we will eventually go to the language spoken in California, whatever that may be.

This is another one of those How did no one notice this incidents. I saw the shirts the other day but i dvr'd it and fast forwarded through it because I had no interest in the shirt. Crazy that no one noticed before airing. Seems the designer would if anyone. Maybe they can't spell. 


 

"the designer"

I think you are assuming too much here.

 

too many tequlia's for sure.

 

That was one of the worst hours of fashions I have ever seen.
