A Viscous Attack #4

[Whosthetabbynow]

Here we are on the fourth instalment of crazy misspellings, misuse of words and all the other topsy-turvy attempts at literacy from the illiterate.
Post your observations. Lady’s the flaw is youre’s…

😂

At least swede boots won't give youb onions.
(Sorry!)

On my local Freecycle today 'Kitchen table and hairs'.
Presumably from a home with pets.

I'd allow that as a typo but they should have had a quick check before posting. It's not in the 'chester draws' category though.

Obviously a typo but it made me chuckle so I thought I'd share it.

Chester draws is in a league of it's own, because Chester drawers does make sense if you think that you can have a Chesterfield sofa or Windsor chair.
Chester draws looks like a headline on the back page of the Chronicle.
Maybe they drew against Macclesfield or somewhere.

there is a nice 'crossover' post on another current thread, man dumped because he text 'Chow for Now'

On a current thread, a DH has "managed to locate the boar hole".

It wasn't me. I'd have replied 'No thanks, already eaten. x'

I was seeing someone and his would ofs gave me the ick.

I’m cracking up 😂😂😂

Ha ha ha. That’ll stop the pesky blighters 🐗

As this is Pedants’ Corner, ‘text’ rather than ‘texted’ demonstrates Muphry’s Law.

That is unusual, they are very rare in the UK 🐗

i don't use texted though it sounds like a childs word to me

Off topic, but plenty of them round our way. Not in a hole though!

It's Pedants' corner.

I once answered a post on Freegle that had a word or words missing.
I can't remember what it was but it came with free kids.
I asked if I could just have the kids and how old they were.

that's interesting, have you ever seen them ?

I’d be willing to bet that it’s mostly young rather than older people who don’t use ‘texted’.

I hope your second paragraph was intended to be ironic.

We have seen them - their babies are called humbugs and are very cute, but wouldn't want to meet one in a dark alley.

When we lived abroad they were hunted and would often charge through our garden trying to evade the dogs!

I assumed the bloke saying 'would of' gave her the ick. Not ironic.

Oh! I thought "his" was a typo for "this". Now that makes sense!

(Wouldn't be the first time I'd read something like, "This would of gave me the ick" though...!)

Good for you. Presumably you could find a man who texted 'I would of...' attractive.

I know we have some self-proclaimed pedants who have strayed on here but I'm not one of them. What on earth possessed you to think 'I was seeing someone and his would ofs gave me the ick.' was a typo?
I could have posted 'I was seeing someone and his smelly feet gave me the ick.' only they didn't.

I met a boar while walking in on a signposted trail in an Australian forest once. I'm not sure who was more surprised but the boar ran away while I was wondering if I should climb a tree.

I know we have some self-proclaimed pedants who have strayed on here but I'm not one of them.

Muphry's law strikes again, I'm afraid - you posted upthread:
