25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

That one musical written by William Finn with a long-ass name. It's about a bunch of children with exaggerated personalities and very tragic backstories at a spelling bee. It also boasts the song "My Unfortunate Erection" that will always get censored by the school doing it.

Guy 1: "Hey, Quinn got into the school musical, 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee!"

Guy 2: "Who does she play?"

Guy 1: "The Kid Who Gets an Erection"

Commonwealth spelling

An imaginary set of English spelling rules, cited from a politically-correct wish to be inclusive or out of ignorance of Canadian English. There are only three varieties of spelling in English: British, US, and Canadian (the last is often described as a combination of the first two). English spelling in all other places follows one of these conventions. At least two of these forms are prominently used in countries of the Commonwealth of Nations.

Which kind of “Commonwealth spelling” is this, British spelling or Canadian spelling?
