HeroicBillyBishop comments on Singapore introduces caning for boys who bully others at school

I first read this as 'caring'....Which I suspect is probably a better approach, given that these are children

But, I have met tons of people that probably could've benefited from a good ol' caning, so there's that too...

I read 'canning' and was very confused for a moment

Exact same reaction lmao. I feel like caning will build character xd. Also teach them a valuable skill.

Are you now reading caning as canning, like I did after misreading caring first as well?

Because those kids are going to be beaten with canes, not making preserves.

Unless they’re fixing wicker chairs, then we’re all confused.
