<< So, you're saying that my intentional misspelling wasn't a misspelling after all? >>

It depends on whom you ask :-)
I'm sure there are people who always and only use 'sic' and some always and only 'sick'.
When I first came to the US for college, the Expository Writing instructor kept on fixing my spelling of 'colour' by striking out the u, unwilling to accept any variation of the word.
On the other hand, the physics professor spelt 'circuit' 3 different ways on the same blackboard. All of them wrong: circit, cerkit, and cirquit.
The moral of the story is spell however it pleases you. :-)

At least you got an apology:
