The coffee shop menu spelled 'espresso' wrong for 3 years and I never caught it

There's this place on 5th Street I hit every weekday morning. Their board said 'expresso' with an X, which I just thought was some fancy French thing. Last Tuesday a barista handed me a cup with a handwritten note asking if I ever noticed the typo. I'd been ordering there for 3 years and never once flagged it. Now I can't read any menu without triple-checking every word. Has anyone else had a moment where you finally see a sign you passed a hundred times?

Feels like the world gaslit you for three years, glad they finally owned it.
