Does MSU still make everyone take the English Proficiency Exam after the sophomore year? Way back when, if a person couldn't write a passable 500 word essay that was graded by a panel of English professors/teachers, they'd find themselves in Bonehead English the following semester (the actual title of the course was Remedial English). I heard a rumor that Dee Dee Lewis never passed Bonehead even though he took it several times. I can't verify that though.
I am not a typical “grammar police”, but goodness. Coarch? Just wondering, does spell check make random words like Coarch, or do you have to deliberately type it yourself?

It has to be typed, but spell check can be turned off so it wouldn't be caught. One occurence could be a typo, but twice?? **

It is not that uncommon for low information people to use the term "coarch" instead of "coach" much like some use the term "Krogers" in lieu of "Kroger." It is also not that uncommon for some older country folk to add an "r" to certain works, like wash (warsh).
Just having a little fun, if you're from Mississippi, surely you've heard the terms, coarch, warsh, etc. Get the stick out of your backside.

Hey, if you were joking, I’m good for a laugh. I didn’t know you were joking though.

You left out the most common one, "Walmarts". I've heard "warsh", but never "coarch". Probably depends on what part of Mississippi a person grew up in.
Here in north Alabama, some of the old timers from the country call a water hose a "hose pipe". I'd never heard that until I moved here.
