Puerto?
That's the one! Dyslecticon non-native English speaker here, sorry
It brings back special memories.
A Puerto Rican girl in HS wrote Portorico as one word on her backpack in whiteout. I've made it a point to make sure I knew how to spell Puerto rico since them and not look like a fucking moron. Nothing against you, just a special memory of an idiot.
Hahaha that's a great story, thanks! Makes my mistake feel a bit less silly haha <3
