[@DonniSkattered]

I think it's totally adorable!!! My mom used to cross out sections in our bedtime books with notes for the babysitter, "do not read" because, she said later, childhood is short and you have the rest of your life to learn about sad things. You don't need to hear them from anyone else but Mommy and Daddy, in case you have questions. (I think mostly it was a kindness to the babysitter to not have crying kids when the hunter meets Bambi's mom in the woods.)😋 But still, incredibly sweet of you! 🌷

[@purpleiguana208]

Seth, I'm going to make you happy by correcting a jackal. Charlotte's thorax did NOT burst open to let all her babies out. This is incorrect on two parts. First off, she had an egg sac, which she explained in great detail to Wilbur and which Templeton the rat retrieved to take back to the farm for the spiderlings to hatch from. Second, because spiders do not have a thorax that is separate from their other body parts. Their head and thorax are fused together into a cephalothorax, which is tiny compared to the spider's abdomen. But even the abdomen would not have burst, because egg sac.

[@mfirko]

Hi Seth, I've been here since day one and I'm loving corrections. I've never offered a correction myself, but this week I can't help myself. There are many unambiguously bipedal animals you could have chosen for your example: the kangaroo rat, the gibbon, or the pangolin to name a few. And yet you chose the kangaroo. Kangaroos are not simply bipedal. The kangaroo is perhaps unique among animals, as research shows it is the only animal (that we know of) that is *penta*pedal. In a paper published in 2014 in the Royal Society's Biology Letters, researchers show that the kangaroo's tail acts as a fifth leg. The paper's abstract: "When moving slowly, kangaroos plant their tail on the ground in sequence with their front and hind legs. To determine the tail's role in this ‘pentapedal’ gait, we measured the forces the tail exerts on the ground and calculated the mechanical power it generates. We found that the tail is responsible for as much propulsive force as the front and hind legs combined. It also generates almost exclusively positive mechanical power, performing as much mass-specific mechanical work as does a human leg during walking at the same speed. Kangaroos use their muscular tail to support, propel and power their pentapedal gait just like a leg." royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rsbl.2014.0381 Even when kangaroos stand or hop without their forelimbs, they generally use their tail as a third limb and exhibit tripedal locomotion (the only animal known to do this besides parrots). Although they are capable of hopping along using only two legs, this bipedal form of locomotion is the equivalent of a human sprinting; it is used relatively infrequently. They also sometimes move quadrapedally using only their fore and hinds limbs. To call the kangaroo merely bipedal does not give this unique bi/tri/quad/penta-pedal animal the credit it is due. My apologies if scientific research is a bit much for you! If so, please reference this letter written by a zookeeper to a seven year old boy named Isiah. Perhaps that will be more your speed: www.northgeorgiazoo.com/zoo-am-i-blog/just-ask-a-zookeeper-qa#:~:text=Kangaroos%20are%20known%20for%20their,like%20why%20we%20humans%20run. Keep up the great work, buddy! And remember, as that friendly zookeeper says, the best way to learn new things is to ask questions! EDIT: Here is a video of a kangaroo using pentapedal locomotion if anyone is interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJi6e2x6g5aEl80

Just a spider? Charlotte is a projection of empathy, compassionate awareness and altruistic action. She undertakes enormous effort to preserve the life of another from being slaughtered by a predator who presents contrasting characteristics that deliver haunting revelations to the reader. The inability of the farmer to empathize with a creature he intends to sell for consumption does not know the extent of the awareness he intends to end becomes increasingly chilling when you consider the fact that the conveyance of the web woven message to the farmer about Wilbur defines a connectivity between awareness', advocating for the pigs life to have value to the famer. The farmer saw value only for the farmer. Value in exploitation and more sinisterly the reoccurrence of slaying the animal as a means to make money once fame no longer produced profit. The idea that we can reduce or even remain ignorant to the empathetical treatment of another awareness because of economic convenience is troubling but the persistence of Charlotte in being a voice for Wilbur when he would otherwise have none and the unifying effect she had on the other farm animals through her selflessness is inspiring. When Charlotte died so also did her immense and profound character, leaving behind her those touched by the way she lived her life having been rendered more aware of each other. Learning why sharing their space more kindly matters. I think that there is more than one message about mortality being delivered. I think of this book and consider, What may I do before my end, that will leave those behind me better off for my having been a part of their existence?

[@El0nw0lf]

First off, I've loved every corrections. It really is something to look forward to each week, much love for that! Next, this is not really a correction, but I've been wondering this for a while: why do you always have a pencil in your hand during corrections? And also, why would you tap it on the lead instead of the gum..? That's not good for the pencil and it leaves marks on the desk.

[@S.Pociecha]

I presume he enjoys leaving marks on his desk.

[@Blmast]

So, now that we know that sloths have two fingers, at 9:50, wouldn't Seth had to have just used two fingers clawing the wheel instead of two full hands?

[@LindaC616]

Some have 2...

[@janethalken8269]

I could have sworn that story was gonna end with him getting "the toe"..

[@lketoplay]

I cannot even explain how excited I get when I log on to work in the morning, and there is a new Corrections episode. Also, did you really just say Lego blocks, when I think the jackals have clearly explained that it's Lego bricks?

[@melissasufka4153]

He did a thing there… rehashing an old argument. Don’t take the bait 🤣

[@brigrockwell9965]

For real. Looking right down the barrel of the camera. He knows what he's doing.

[@christinegarrett7257]

The jackal song would be perfect in the Broadway production of Cicada Cicada. The cockroach, chicken, sloth, Cicada, TNMTs, and all the other characters could burst out into a song and dance number and have jackals run on stage and do something. How have I missed Seth mispronouncing Michaelangelo? The way he said it sounded like Michelob (is that the correct spelling for the beer?), which would make sense for the party turtle.

[@keithbrown6887]

Michelob isn't much of a beer.

[@switchnx]

Now, SOME people may try to correct you by saying that “Frankenstein was the scientist, not the monster,” as a correction. HOWEVER. Frankenstein was Victor Frankenstein’s _surname,_ and since the creature was his creation, it would likely take his surname as well.

[@dianewach4168]

[@akshelby33]

I love Corrections! It really makes Seth’s humor shine through. It’s hilarious!

[@mcnutty54]

Corrections is literally one of my favorite things to look forward to every Friday. Never stop!

[@ItsLalasWorld]

Seth meyers addressed my corrections comment! This jackal is geeking out right now 😭😭😭

[@obgfoster]

Don't get too excited or you'll wind up in the E.D.

[@nedim_guitar]

Hard to believe that corrections has been done for a year. I almost feel like it's a set-up for jackals, who have more time on their hands than they know what to do with, to fact check.

[@xzonia1]

I was in a very bad mood, and watching this cheered me up. Much love to you Seth and crew! :)

[@stacyrockwood4524]

So Correction: Charlotte of Charlotte's Web did not die because her thorax burst open spilling out live young. Rather she died after laying her egg sac, as some species of spider do. Those females die so that their hatchlings will be able to feast on their corpse as a way to support their progeny. So, now you get to have the mental image Charlotte being cannabalized by Wilber's new little friends.

[@limesebastian]

This was the best Corrections so far :D Also I feel like we need a behind the scenes special on how Corrections gets made. Maybe an hour-long documentary voiced by Harvey Fierstein?

[@odedkoren5596]

At this point, I think talking about creating a Frankenstein is just Seth trolling us.

[@sophumerin]

We don't say "Zeppelin was the inventor, not the airship" after all, so I never understood the nitpick. Besides, Victor died an undergrad in the original Shelley, so the "was the Doctor, not the monster" doubly irks me.

[@ToneKoneFrmDet]

Yup

[@MyBiPolarBearMax]

I forget if thats Monet or Manet’s thing

[@helenryan5217]

@Von Neumann Abacus I was wondering how long it would take before someone said, "Frankenstein was the doctor!"

[@Valerie-mz4et]

Absolutely trolling!

As a jackal I love how it’s been a year and it still feels like it’s just our thing

[@joseph-zoramcbride4029]

For surs! I think the drumph era got me into Late Night - as Colbert became more and more miltoast and unwatchable. And now it's the only late night I watch. It's formed a family! real community of smart, fun, nitpicky mothrfuckers. Love ye fellow jackals and the writer's room that makes us possible!!

[@psa921416]

Seth setting up the jackals with that Frankenstein line. Love it!!

[@sea_triscuit7980]

Seth, you've easily become my favorite late night show host. I loved The Awesomes and you've always been a talented writer as well. Thank you for making me laugh for all these years! This segment is great just the way it is! Those commenters must have mange haha

[@chrishei3111]

YESSSSSSS I LOVE NEAR 20 MINUTES OF WHATEVER THIS AMALGAMATION IS

[@JamesEliGallagher]

A quick correction for the person who commented on Charlotte's thorax bursting: Spiders do not have a thorax, they instead have a body segment called a cephalothorax or prosoma, which is a fusion of the head and thorax of insects. Furthermore, the reproductive organs are held in their other body segment, the abdomen.

[@alindasue]

Add to that, the babies are not carried in the spider. They are born from the sack of eggs that she laid. The egg sack is even prominently mentioned in the book, as it describes how Wilber protects the egg sack during the trip back to the farm after the fair.

[@alistor3777]

So it is still technically a thorax?

[@JamesEliGallagher]

@@alistor3777 I'm not an expert on the subject, but I guess it would depend on how technical one wants to be. It still carries out (edit: certain) functions a thorax would in insects (mainly the attachment point for its legs), but outside of that, I don't know. It certainly could not have babies burst out of it, unless there's some weird Xenomorph type stuff going on.

[@elizabethsanmiguel]

The slower pace of Corrections is one of the things I really love.

[@nunyabizness3878]

Never stop doing corrections. A gem I look forward to EVERY Friday

[@carmenuljanicka6447]

Not a correction, but an interesting fact to add on to the ED in ED situation. ED is also what the medical community calls Eating Disorders. So theoretically there is a sad world in which a man walks into the ED with ED and ED.

[@mariannecontrino6297]

You can go ahead and add one more ED to that list, because it also stands for "Emotionally Disabled". You don't hear the term too often, as it is primarily used in schools to classify students who may need special ed, similar to LD(Learning Disabled), and CD(Cognitively Disabled). They're typically kids who have experienced some sort of mental/physical abuse, leaving them emotionally stunted, and prone to lashing out....aka "Shoemakered".

[@bradford433]

And unfortunately this man's name is Edward.

[@lisazdvoru1660]

ED is also a common acronym in the charity/nonprofit sector, and it means Executive Director.

[@sainjawoof3506]

Actually the medical profession doesn't use ED for eating disorders. This acronym was started on social media by laypersons. EDS is a condition called Ehlers Danlos Syndrome

[@fenlinescouser4105]

So any theories on that famous talking horse?

[@TammeraFreno]

Wiping tears from my eyes! You are sooo flippin funny!!!💙

[@QsPhilosophy]

I was so glad you got the thing about sloths right! It's because there are two different living types of sloth, but both have three claws on their hind limbs, while they can be distinguished by the number of claws on their fore limbs.

[@PFWoody488]

I like how he drags this out even longer to annoy the whiners. Andy Kaufman would be proud.

[@LeeStJohn-ym4df]

Oh yeah.

[@IMArt-kx2ci]

"I walked her to her car, when we got there it was midnight, the show had ended at 18:00" 🤣 Watching this is the best way to start the weekend, and I always save it for after I've put the kids to sleep. Fun fact: Shoemaker shares his last name with a former Spanish prime Minister: Zapatero (I'm sure you can use it in some way to chastise him next week 😏)

[@andybaldman]

“Watch literally f-ing anything else” should be the opening card text for next week.

[@bigwil1740]

Happy Anniversary to you and Corrections 🗣️🎉👏🏾

A correction of a correction - a meteor can't hit anything. A meteor is purely a visual phenomenon; it's the streak of light left behind a meteorite as it vapourises in the atmosphere. The physical object in question is either a meteoroid (when it's in space) or a meteorite (after it enters the atmosphere).

[@insane_troll]

That is not right. Here is what it says on the NASA website: Meteoroids are objects in space that range in size from dust grains to small asteroids. Think of them as “space rocks." When meteoroids enter Earth’s atmosphere (or that of another planet, like Mars) at high speed and burn up, the fireballs or “shooting stars” are called meteors. When a meteoroid survives a trip through the atmosphere and hits the ground, it’s called a meteorite.

@@insane_troll I fail to see the distinction.

[@LucenProject]

@ Insane Troll's comment highlights that after entering an atmosphere, the object is still classified as a meteoroid, and that upon hitting the ground the classification changes. Your comment only says the change happens "after it enters the atmosphere".

[@dahawk8574]

And if it hits an office building, it’s called a “Rebecca”.

[@LucenProject]

@@dahawk8574 only until happy hour.

[@AshArAis]

Corrections is the Better Call Saul of late night segments. Love love love Corrrections every time. It makes my Friday.

[@ChrisIn2010]

Love this analogy!

[@svilenvasilev3819]

I haven’t laugh this much in long time. Thank you, Seth. 😎👍🏻

[@JoeO.]

After 2+ years of pandemic life I’ve watched all of KZbin in its entirety. The only content truly worth watching is A Closer Look and Corrections. In the absence of merch, I’ll be forced to shave my body so I can get a proper tattoo of the Late Nite trinity: Seth, Wally, and the Jackal. All I want is a coffee mug, damn it…

[@bubblesezblonde]

coffee mug quite agree

[@markmac2206]

i got the covid shield replica like Wally used to wear, friggin sweeeeet.

[@Imeatingchocolate]

I feel like a Scollins tank would be appropriate merch as well. And would show off that tattoo quite nicely.

[@rabbit251]

I want a peel on Wally tattoo. Or they could sell the cue cards! What do they do with the used cards anyway? I'm sure they're not sent to the National Archives. Or they could take cue from someone else (he who shall not be named) and try to flush them down the toilet.

[@JoeO.]

@@rabbit251 Despite it being a teleprompter world, Wally does oversee a considerable cue card empire. Once his pen hits the card stock at SNL and Late Night it becomes property of NBC. He does have a website “Cue Cards by Wally” and you can purchase custom cards though…

[@rikkiechambers4959]

Ok the 3rd base joke was pretty funny .. a classic lol I will never get the people who complain .. has no one informed them that watching is fucking optional ?? There is a big group of us that completely appreciate this entire segment and the time spent making it for us . Plus it’s damn nice to actually interact with the host of a late night show who saved our sanity from a room in his attic over covid .. who pushed along with every staff member to make us laugh when we desperately needed them to .. I for one love this segment it’s my second favorite .. jokes Seth can’t tell will forever be my favorite .. the reason for it , the presentation , the irony .. the Camaraderie with Jenny and Amber , the same goofy lines at the end .. it’s perfection for me 😂💚😂
