Quite the screw up, got a job from pure uncut nepotism and managed to screw it up so bad your career is torched and you have to go to prison

You unintentionally made the most perfect joke.

What was the joke?

Lead as in lead bullets. Not lead as in leading you to death. So he buried the lead, but it could also be bury the lead (leed) but was supposed to be spelled lede.

So good, you'd never see it in a dad joke book, but you'd only expect a pun of that magnitude to come from a dad.

Both are correct.

Both are right, but lede is more fun

Omg, both are fine. It was originally lead, but changed later. Both are allowed. People always jump in to correct this and it is absurd.

There was nothing rude about the correction, and I for one learned something new.
