Best typo that you’ve either read or had happen to you

[AutisticLegoLover]

I was updating a thread of mine earlier and went back over it to do a quick proof read. I was bemoaning the stupid virus I’ve got but it had been changed to Boris instead of virus which amused me greatly. I’m easily tickled with things like this when the typo is somehow eerily associated with the word you typed but your phone changed to make you look illiterate. My phone hates me and it’s getting worse lately with the typos. The word is correct when I type it and the bastard changes it when I’m not looking.

What’s your best one?

When my cleaning lady added Viakal to the Alexa shopping list. Except Alexa thought she said viagra. Omg we rolled around the floor laughing 🤣

My scout group had a lucky catch when the “Welly Wanging” event was beset by two unfortunate autocorrects.
We were definitely NOT asking parents to donate any spare willies that were too small because the kids really love wanking them across the hut 😫.
That is now used as the very good reason to proofread EVERYTHING going out to scouts and families.

I was going to say school once reminded us DC would need suncream, hats and willes for their trip, but yours beats that hands down 🤣

i once sent a letter to a client at HMP Bumringham when he was in fact at HMP Birmingham

Dh was in business trip and had a lunch by the river. He sent message that pretty dicks around here. He ment ducks.

Our admin while at work was supposed to type, prescribed prn for anxiety but somehow added an o, source of lots of ribbing and a wonder if it actually did work for anxiety

I told me sister that I needed new knockers because mine were stretched out of shape by pregnancy. I wasn't wrong, but it was not what I intended!

Someone on another forum asked what a DH was. Someone told her it was a dead husband

There's a brand of running gear called Salomon. Or as some of us have written, Salmon!

As a student I once asked for quick and easy recipes as I was a bit bored of mice meat. To which someone asked was I really that poor! I meant mince meat

There's an area near me called Laira Bridge. My friend text his DP and autocorrect changed it to I'm on top of Laura Bridge

Not quite a typo but introducing a new friend into friendship group and was explaining his recent surgery, wanted to say 'he has a dicky heart' but came out 'he has a hearty dick'

I have signed off my emails with kind retards instead of kind regards 🤦‍♀️

My friend was talking about her dad who was in prison and I accidentally typed, ‘Does he get on with his cellmeat.’

Told my son I had arrived at his university dorm to take him out to lunch. Somehow my text announcing “I am here” got scrambled to “I am heterosexual”.

He said he kinda knew that already. Lol.

I once emailed a team of colleagues and head office asking who was going to cover up an incident instead of follow up 🙈

I once wrote a long technical report for a large bank in their “erratic network performance”. We were the experts advising as the bank wanted to sue the company who had installed the network.

it was completed and just before I sent it I managed to turn every instance of “erratic” to “errotic”
using global search and replace. Then I sent it to the lawyers.

The lawyers called me and we had a laugh and I quickly corrected it.

Typed "you need to get your ducks in a row" - unfortunately replaced the
"u" with "i"
Same thing really - mostly men in the teams meeting :)

My very polite line manager asked if I could send his dick to a very senior lady at the organisation. He meant deck, as in slide deck, and was absolutely mortified.

A solicitor who was a member of the Personnel Injury Panel.

I once wrote an article for the local newspaper about the cunty council instead of the county council.

A friend did an essay on public liability and did a quick spell check before sending to print, back in the day when essays were submitted on paper. Only after she dropped in the document she realised public was changed to pubic right through the essay including heading.

Not exactly a typo but here goes. My brother was a call handler for a GP out of hours service. A lady called and she told him she was bleeding. He asked her where she was bleeding from, so she gave him her address. This still makes me chuckle.

A friend of mine was writing an essay on firearms (something to do with gun control legislation) and accidentally hit “correct all” when editing.
Had to manually recorrect hundreds of “forearms” back to firearms. Puts a whole new spin on the right to bear (bare) arms!

A long time ago, a new colleague called Gary (who didn't have much of a sense of humour, and did not find it amusing) emailed to introduce himself on his first morning.

"Hi.

I'm Gay the new business manager".

I worked in a hospital during COVID and one morning they sent out a hospital wide email about attending your mask tit test if you were eligible

Brought much hilarity at a pretty miserable time

When we bought our flat I messaged the estate agent to ask when we would be able to pick up the Jews instead of the keys

I work in public sector pensions and have seen numerous examples of two of those words spelt wrongly!
