Back in the Middle Ages, Titivillus was assigned by the devil to hang around the monasteries and scriptoriums with his bag, and fill it up every day with the scribes' mistakes. Of course, sometimes he'd help them along in those mistakes so he could get his quota. So the best excuse for a major mess-up was "Titivillus made me do it." LOL! I don't think he's gone into retirement now--I'm sure he's responsible for all the strange things my computer does to my writing. (Of course, he hasn't given up on the old-fashioned calligraphy either. He has spoiled many a scroll for me.)
