Have you made any typo mistakes before?
My recent one is here: http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewt......rt=300#9 I meant to post the word "wage" instead of "rage" several times in that post. Jonathan pointed it out to me. My biggest one is here: http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewt......267172#0 I meant to post the word "hobo" instead of "homo." |

No not me but I saw somebody else make a typo. Instead of writing "mature", he mistakenly typoed "manure."

Deciphering Danny Doyle's posts is half the fun.
I still recall the day I met Beaker from the Muppets. He said to me "Meep, meep, mee mee mee Meep!", and that has made all the difference.

In a report to the police, I was describing a drug dealer’s lookout “peeking” through the window. By mistake, I typed “peeing”.
Even though several officers and detectives read my email, nobody noticed. |

So often "submit" reads as "surprise me" and novel turns of phrase are welcome.

The most recent was trying to send my wife "Waiting for the bus" and as I hit "send," I saw it read; "Sainting on the bus."
What the hey? What is "Sainting," anyway?

What's funny about your biggest typo, Dynamike, is that so many people played along; and then you finally caught it after 9 posts. Loved it. Lynn

I am thankful everyday for autocorrect and online dictionaries. When younger in college, before such technological wonders, I was pulling my third straight all-nighter during finals weeks. It was 2 am and I was working on a paper, when I got stuck on how to spell "should." For some reason, my over-caffeinated brain thought the word started with "ch..." So my unabridged Webster's was no help. As I was using a typewriter, I could not leave it blank and go back to it. I ended up wasting over 30 minutes trying to figure out how to spell the word...

I only post on forums when I'm too drunk to stop myself.
Even then I post (horrible things, I am a monster) with passable spelling and grammar. I really can't understand why everyone else isn't as awesome as I am at word stuff.... "Trump 2020: lose hope all ye who enter" Yeah, I don't know what I think that'll do. They're all too busy trying to remain uneducated, well I guess educated by a TV channel (foxnews.com is not a separate knowledge base)... and I don't know what's worse. So ther! Yous gets mi internets.
Magic is doing improbable things with odd items that, under normal circumstances, would be unnessecary and quite often undesirable.
