I was sending an email to a friend, and she's going to be moving soon. We haven't been getting along well... and you know, I was going to send her this email saying "I miss the way things used to be. Our friendship means a lot to me, and I want to see if we can salvage that. You're a great person and I want you to know everything about how I admire you."



Instead, I attached a cartoon and wrote, "Thought you might find this funny."



That's a big typo if I've ever seen one.

Saying that up is down will not make up, down.

Thanks, Jen. I knew I could count on you.

Hee... you're very welcome. Check your e-mail.





I can't really think of any of my other famous typos right now. My biggest problem, is I tend to leave out a letter.

[michellesflute]

So, does anyone ever wrote "I wish you were her" instead of "I wish you were here"?

Anya: "So, I've been reading a lot about the good old 'us of A', embracing the extraordinarily precious ideology that's helped to shape and define it."

Willow: "Democracy?" Anya: "Capitalism."

oh the problem with her and here! jup count me in

"I wish that you were here or that I were there, or that we were together anywhere!"

[skittles]

This isn't quite so much a typo as it is total confusion... at least on my part.



A woman I worked with asked me about commeal. She had a recipe that had been emailed to her that asked for commeal I said that I hadn't heard of it & was she sure it wasn't asking for corn meal. I told her that sometimes people will see the rn as an m. No, she was sure it was commeal. She even did an internet search & found other recipies that asked for commeal. I told her that maybe one of the character recognition programs that you have with scanners may have read it wrong. No, no, no. I gave up.



To this day, I wonder if she ever found her commeal.

In vino veritas

[BigGayBear]

Mine isn't so much a TYPO as much as a... speecho... or a speako... or something. Well, it was something I said instead of typed, coz I type so badly that my list could go on forever.



Anyways, I was saying something about... the Hiemlich maneuvre... and it came out... the... ummm... Hymenlick... and it still took me a good 5 minutes to notice. Still can't say Hiemlich...



But, yeah, my typos arn't really that funny... mostly consisting of stuff like... lveo yuo abby...

~Cuteness is more than just a TeddyBear thing~

[effrena]

my biggest typo is and always will be orgasm instead of organism. i`m working at a bookshop and constantly have to order "organism today" a biology schoolbook.... the kids love me for that!

Can`t we not suck anymore?! Ellen DeGeneres

[3peanuts]

My newest (yesterday)



Instead of: "If she knew, she'd beat me till I die."



I wrote: "If she knew, she'd EAT me till I die."

that would really be great...

[ohtrustysodamachine]

ok eventho Chris said he wasnt gonna remind my girl about this one I thought it was appropriate for this thread....I was watching ER and talking to Chris at the same time, it was a really sad ep and I said to him 'I feel so stupid coz im sat here wiping my teats'......ofcourse what i really meant was 'TEARS!!'.......i think Chris had bad images for the rest of the night LMAO

[robotguru]

My biggest problem tends to be making the last letter one one word the first on the next instead lik ethis Two typos in one lol



My most recent typos, I said "hoefully" when i meant hopefully and "np" instead of no...Vero's typo-ness has worn off on me

[oneyedchicklet]

One that comes to mind that I notice the most is when someone sends me a message and I mean to say "one sec" it comes out "one sex" and I'm way too quick on sending it.

Now serving Bitter, party of one. Your table is ready.

[Urn of Osiris]

One that I've noticed on a few occassions in chat. Not that I'm happy about it but I've been typo'd as urine instead of Urnie. Makes me kinda pissy.

I'm still shocked about this one ..... and i realize it will be a bit obscure, but..... Just one word :

[Pixie Muso]

I know I occasionally type goof instead of good.



I remember telling an ex something and he (yes, I mean he. lol) typed back "That's wonderfuk!" instead of "That's wonderful!"...



I was pissin' myself laughing for days!

[mollyig]

I once worked in the finance section of the local county council. One day I was putting some letters in envelopes for the post, and noticed that one of the typists had mis-typed the title of the boss - County Finance Officer, leaving the "o" in county out. Lucky I spotted that one!

This reminds me of an e-mail I got at work once that instead of saying there had been an outage was talking about "the outrage over the weekend"

"Inappropriate? No! You're being ignorant"

[Pixie Muso]

Oh, I remember an e-mail one friend sent when she became Queer Officer at uni. In it, she told everyone that she's a lesbain. lol

[Candleshoe]

I am often writing to Warwickshire County Council, although before the spellcheck kicks in, I am often writing to Warwickshite Cunty Cuncil.

And it makes me laugh out loud. Every. Single. Time. Sad muppet that I am...

[Jennpurr]

Candleshoe,

That's funny!

Thank you for resurrecting this thread. I had forgotten about it, but thanks to you I have found my new sig.


Jen

[Spighy]

Oh man, I had completely forgotten about this thread Candleshoe, thanks for bringing it up again It reminds me of happier times
Sadly, due to my best friend's definite lack of internet connection (since last august! ) I don't have anything new to add. This doesn't mean that I don't typo anymore, I just do it in italian.

[Boschi]

Not exactly a typo, but it kills me every time I think about it:

A newspaper in my city didn't plan out their front page very well. Two main stories ran, but because of some poor design the headline for one seemed to refer to the photos of the other. I realize the headline is not funny, but... but... together? Oh, yes.

Headline: Man convicted of shaking son to death.
Photos: A local baseball star and an image of the bobble head doll that looks like him.

Doh.

- Boschi

[umgaynow]

In relation to lesbain every time I try to type lesbian I come up with lesbina Which sounds like a superhero I'd really like to meet!

[kisstheviolets]

this obnoxious, highly incompetent legal intern at my work (she's a year behind me at school and we don't know how she got my boss to offer an internship to her) wrote a complaint a couple of weeks ago alleging that an employee who worked at the "pubic wharehouse" was discriminated against by her employer on the basis of her sex.

it's still being passed around the office. she's such a twit.

[YMKA]

heh...I get lesbina all the time.....

now for one of my typos....instead of saying "thanks for add"....I managed to type "thanks for ass"
