I fucking hate that I kept missing ‘fifth’ instead of ‘5th’, I thought they had gotten better with this

    Apparently I had a few typos, but I don’t remember where.

    Actually, Samdell found it in his OP.

    I typed “fifth” when the correct answer was “5th”. That’s kind of nitpicky, I think.
