The Boring Review

Corrections

Errors occur, even here, where so little happens.

7 July 2026

A reader observes that the signatures of all eight committee members are remarkably alike. The signatures are not alike. They are, at most, similar. We regret the resemblance.

7 July 2026

In No. 014, we stated that the doormat says WELCOME. It says nothing. It is a mat. We regret the error.

6 July 2026

In No. 002, we described the hold music as “nearing its conclusion.” It was not. We regret the error, and the optimism.

5 July 2026

In No. 009, the grey cardigan was described as “oatmeal.” Independent examination has since established the colour as “greige.” We regret both.

4 July 2026

In No. 005, we reported the parking garage ticket to be non-transferable. A reader has since transferred one. The Review has referred the matter to no one.

3 July 2026

In No. 016, the dial tone received an overall score of 3.7. The dial tone has not acknowledged the score, and we no longer expect it to.

2 July 2026

An earlier printing of No. 001 gave the manila folder’s colour as manila. This was correct. We regret nothing, but the space had already been reserved.
