All of Twitter Is Celebrating Something Called "Marriage Equaility"
Twitter has been in a frenzy all day, jubilant over this morning’s decision regarding marriage equaility. Er—marriage equaality. Marriage equity. Marriage equus? Who knows. Twitter sure doesn’t!
For whatever reason, a whole lot of prominent tweeters have been spelling what should have been #MarriageEquality with an extra “i.” Which is probably why Twitter started auto-suggesting this:
The result? Everyone on Twitter looks like (more of ) an idiot.
Yes, today is about love but fundamentally it's about respect #MarriageEquaility #respect #LoveWins

The fact that Twitter is auto-suggesting #MarriageEquaility is extra bizarre, though, since, according to analytics site Topsy, the correct spelling of the word is still actually being used more often.
But either way, let’s remember to focus on what really matters: That it is a momentous, beautiful day for gay quails everywhere. God bless.
