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.....

Colleague had a spam email the other day that should have promised to "help her find that special gift", except they had missed out the "f" in gift. Made it sound like some sort of specialist dating agency.

That's a possibility, Coven, although, as you say, it's not a normal part of a church wedding.

Maybe the vicar/priest/officiant gave an extra blessing to the couple when they were outside on the steps - so consecrate.

Or maybe the couple just had a 'staged kiss' for the photographer and if the reporter's first language wasn't English the kiss got translated to consummated?!

Mum always reckoned it was supposed to be consecrated, yes.

Not a typo but I had a colleague who was very excited about her trip on the Venice-Simpleton Orient Express.

In a report I wrote about a colleague's grievances - "He feels he has difficulty getting hard". (Supposed to be "heard")

I've had a fairly long and moderately stressful day, and have returned home to a cold empty house (DH away) craving a sit down and a stiff drink (pregnant so can't have the latter). As I fumbled for the house keys it occurred to me that DH hadn't asked me how my day was when he rang me to moan about his as I was on the way home. The phrase "Lying On The Sofa With A Gun" from upthread popped into my head and I can't stop laughing. It's going to be my go-to phrase (in my head) for any crappy day now. Cheered me right up. Thank you MN!

LOTSWAG, perhaps.
"How was your day?"
"Lotswag thanks"
😁

"Venice-Simpleton Orient Express"
Brilliant

Love this thread ! What is snow topped foof from the OP supposed to be? Can't work it out lol!

I sometimes sign off an e-mail with "kind retards" - doesn't go down well!

Anyone in Wales has probably seen this one, but for anyone who hasn't.

The 'translation' into Welsh below actually reads "I am out of the office at the moment. Send any work to be translated"

Back in the 19th century The Times reported on the opening of the Menai Bridge by Queen Victoria. The report was supposed to include the sentence 'the Queen then passed over the bridge.' Apparently, however, the typesetters had other ideas.

I was reading a local magazine which mentioned being in Leicestershite

Apparently an obituary of Charles Darwin said he “received the admiring tributes of the whale community”. I can imagine them thinking quite highly of him.

I had to email our IT dept about an issue I was having and a chap replied with “have you tried fucking on the desktop?”
Nobody could work out what he had originally meant!
I replied “no I’ve not tried that, I’m not sure what you mean?” and got a grovelling reply from his boss, with profuse apologies.
I think that it was a prank and one of his colleagues had set his email to autocorrect a certain word!

I received a letter from the NHS years ago about children’s injections. It was sent out to parents all over the borough after a measles outbreak.
I read it and then guffawed loudly because it was signed...

Have you come across the wicked bible published in 1631? The word "not" is missing from the seventh commandment. The publisher got fined and lost its licence.

I don't care for this medical advice:

It never fails to make me feel a whole lot better when I'm poorly crapping in a blanket
These are hilarious
I really want some of that discocunt

I very nearly sent the school an email with the subject 'Pants' rather than 'Panto' this evening.

And, the difficulty in getting hard...what a thing to go to hr about!

It depends where you work, Shriek. Fluffers have employment rights too, you know.

A group of us were doing a charity abseil from a hotel roof. Someone asked about possible discounts for staying at the hotel that weekend.

Their e-mail reply was: 'Unfortunately we don't offer any discunts.'

I giggled.

They actually sent another e-mail to apologise for it.
