AIBU to think this is the funniest typo ever?

[MaggieMagpie357]

I'm admin on an FB forum for PTAs. Someone has just commented on a thread about Santa's Grottos, apparently they're going to decorate theirs with "snowflake netting across the windows, a blow up father christmas and tree on the outside, oh and not forgetting the snow top foof"

I laughed so hard. What's the best typo you've ever seen/done? I did confuse lick and kick once in a dirty text...... could have been a bit ouchy.....

Friend texted me to say her husband got good at 6pm. She meant to say got home
I texted back lucky you!

[Nacreous]

A client once sent one of my colleagues an email asking them to "call me when you have sex" instead of call me when you have a sec. That made its way round the office in record time.

[MissLadyM]

I once texted someone to say I'd poop in! I also received one asking if I fancied stuffed peepers for dinner. Still laugh now

[Mummyoflittledragon]

Sent an email to dds teacher recently in which I arse her to do something. Mild in comparison to some.

[notsobumpy]

My friend text me a while back saying
“I’m so tired, my neighbours let their gays bang all night”
Gays was meant to say gate.
She was mortified!

Memo around whole office from a uptight solicitor ranting about how people ‘must remove clits before copying as they keep jamming up the photocopier’

Today we received an email at work updating us on the amount of money raised for this years poppy appeal....except the email subject was "poopy appeal" .... immature but made me chuckle

[paperclipsandsunglasses]

Email I received today from one of my staff :

Hi sunglasses ,

Thanks

I had visions of fairies flying out of her payslip

I once emailed two (male) colleagues saying “hope you don’t mind, just sending you a quick nude....”. I meant nudge! Luckily I caught it just as the mouse hovered over send

OH once got a call from the Headteacher whose daughter was in OH's class, did you really mean to type 'impotent' in the weekend spellings list???

[TheSquashyHatOfMrGnosspelius]

Many years ago in my first job I had to send out reminder bills and they had to be stamped with a very old fashioned rubber stamp that had the words, 'Please pay your account' enclosed in a circle. It had been used a gazillion times though and it was very worn and we had a few phone calls to say they had received bills with 'Please pay your a cunt' on them.

Ooops.

Our school sent a letter home asking for help with a sponsored 'willy wang'. My colleague who was responsible has never lived it down

[StealthPolarBear]

What is the willy Wang meant to be?

Not quite right for this thread but soon after my son started school he went somewhere with his dad and left a note on the stairs which said "I am scerd of Linze".
I called him up asking who was lindsay, was he being bullied my a bigger girl, I would sort it, poor baby. He had no idea what I was on about so when he got home I showed him the note. Ahhh... lions. Yes, me too, son!

What was it supposed to be? 'Impotent' seems like a reasonable word to spell...

[Heuschrecke]

"What is the willy Wang meant to be?"

Welly Wang, I imagine? As in, who can throw a welly the furthest.

A couple of years ago our local pub was promoting its Christmas festivities on a chalkboard with the words "please ask a member of staff for fuhrer information". It took at least a week before someone corrected it!

[CS12345]

Willies in a bag is wellies.

Willy Wang is Welly Wang.

Impotent is probably important.

[MulticolourMophead]

Willy Wang = fancy term for a helicopter-off, I guess 😁

Years ago I remember reading in The Times an article about the then Prime Minister's visit to Paris. It said that in the afternoon he would be visiting the loo (should have been Louvre)

[Thegirlinthefireplace]

I came within a finger click of sending hundreds of people an invitation to an "Annual General Mating" (they might have preferred that!)

[Heuschrecke]

That's the kind of typo you would have expected from the Guardian, Silvery!

Talking to a Guardian-reading friend recently, he jokingly bemoaned the lack of 'Grauniad' typos these days. I suggested that as it's all composed digitally the paper now has spellcheck, whereas back in the day they had to rely on human typographers to set everything correctly.

Kindy DS wrote me a note on a post it that said ‘To Mummy I vole you’

[ElsieMc]

Not a typo as such, ears back our local yellow pages carried a picture in the property maintenance section of a handyman, but he had a large penis drawn on. It was missed and went to print.

For years I worked for the matrimonial department of a large legal practice where I would regularly write to the local County Court and missed the o out of county regularly.

[ElsieMc]

*years" not ears. There I go again.

[ElsieMc]

Acronyms are another one from work. I had to summarise the Office of the Deputy Prime Ministers Alcohol Reduction Strategy England - ARSE.

[Ozgirl75]

I used to work in a department that dealt with tree root subsidence claims. Tree roots can cause “desiccation” of the soil (it dries out). I had a new secretary and had dictated my report and she had substituted the word “defecation” for “desiccation”.

So it would read “there were areas of defecation throughout the rear of the property” - this went on for a number of pages as there had been quite significant damage to this place
