Wheel Of Fortune Glitch
Wow, a mystery wrapped in a riddle, wrapped in a flaming bag of burning poo. This aught to be good. You do know that this kind of a post is considered, by most, to be flame bait, right?

Is this how you spell it - aught, really?
Didn't know that :shock:
I'm not sure. I guessed and my spell check didn't freak out so I went with it.
I'm willing to learn the correct spelling though... If my guess was wrong. My spelling is pretty bad.
First of all, big hugs. Spell Check has betrayed us all at one time or another. Autocorrect makes life even harder! So when I see a mistake I assume it was one of those before I get all uppity about someone's skills.
You probably meant "ought" as in what is owed or expected.
But you're in good company, according to the Online Etymology Dictionary, the greats Milton, Pope and even *Shakespeare* used the words "ought" and "aught" interchangeably.
So you just keep doing your thing. Centuries from now, people will be studying your posts in universities around the galaxy, and performing them before packed houses while the rest of us are long-forgotten.
