Posted: 7/5/2006 11:29:10 PM | One of my all time favorites, from a POF profile
Near Houston is Galveston Island, and there's a ferryboat (ahem, "ferry") one can ride for free over to... Bolivar, or Crystal Beach or whatever it is.
And in this woman's profile she said she likes "riding the Galveston fairy". | |

Posted: 7/6/2006 8:52:10 AM | I found this in one of the older threads...a man who can't spell SEX! Why, I thought it is the first word men learn how to spell and certanly, a person sees the word often enough...
Seks is not only about seks it has feelings too so it is strage for me. | |

Posted: 7/9/2006 11:47:47 PM | I think the worst typo I have ever had was about 4 years ago. I was working in a HR department. We were compiling a list of retirees. What I wanted to type was…. “ We have an approximate number at this point, but I will let you know when the final count is in”…. But that is so not what was sent to the owner… I left the “o” out of count….
I got an e-mail back asking me who she was… I was mortified. | |

Posted: 7/4/2007 8:57:24 PM | Just found this one in a forum thread…..
Apparently, Al Gore’s son has been apprehended and is under suspicion of having
a list of pharmacuticles
in his car
Not that I understand why having a list of them would be illegal, but what the hell ARE they? | |

Posted: 7/5/2007 8:41:07 AM | I found this in a profile today:
"I prefer a person who is not only well manured but also intellegent."

Posted: 7/5/2007 11:59:59 AM | I was writing this scene in one of my new books and the character was in his office. Suddenly feeling trapped like the walls were closing in on him. Classic stress coping suggested in my mind that he should get up and pace the room or something.
So I wrote, "Dare took a leisurely stool across the room to stare out the window of his office.
Obviously it should have been" stroll"
When my sister and I reread the scene during copy-edits; we laughed until we cried. Since then, if she is stressed, I remind her that it might relax her if she took a a leisurley stool down the block. This always does the trick and we begin sing again.
Ah, life is grand when you can laugh at yourself. | |

Posted: 7/7/2007 8:01:26 AM | Ha!Ha!Ha! Begin sing again. WTF
I don't even know what I was trying to say. Goes to show that even when we are very careful not to have a typo they still crop up. | |

Posted: 7/7/2007 9:02:40 AM | I don't know if this is funny or not, but I was posting to thread about a women dating a married man. I wrote "I would date a married man" I meant to write "I wouldn't date a married man.
About 2 hours later my inbox was filled with emails from married men asking me out.
What a headache I caused myself. My friends were having a grand time at my expense. | |

Posted: 10/4/2009 6:19:37 PM | Here's a line from one profile with a slightly morbid twist:
"(I) thoroughly enjoy the 'happy effect' a good dead can do for someone you care about."
One wonders what the person expects ... and the intimated experience ... mind boggles ... is POF a safe place or should we regard it as plenty off-ish?

Posted: 10/4/2009 8:43:26 PM | "who is not only well manured"
According to the BS in everyday ads I'd say that psrson's honey is in marketing...
So I guess the author meant 'well mannered', but for some odd reason I read it as 'well manicured'. I guess some people may want that, too. | |

Posted: 10/4/2009 8:49:03 PM | Not much new activity on this forum but I'll help ohbi out with two more examples. Maybe things will pickup again!
Back in the days before PC's and word processors a colleague had a letter typed up telling a salesman his product was "unsuitable". The poor, overworked typist typed an "h" for the second "u". Then again maybe she knew something we didn't?
Again in the workplace, I received an Email telling me Monday was a "statuary holiday". Being young and sarcastic, I asked if the holiday was only for sculptors! It was explained to me in patient tones that a Statuary Holiday is like a national holiday.
And the bonus blooper...
Again in the workplace, a coworker got a little tongue tied on the phone one day. You know how there can be two ways to say the same thing? Well he tried to say "piece of paper" and "sheet of paper" at the same time. It came out "I have a piece of sheet in my hand". | |

Posted: 10/6/2009 10:33:32 AM | Ha--I've got a whole LIST of funnyisms from PoF:
Someone once mentioned how "opposites attack"--is this related to "diabolically opposed"??
An OP suffered from "post-pardon depression", so we had to "bare with her".
“your supposed to say blondes are not stuped” (no comment)
One of my personal favorites: "Defecation of character"
Someone was talking about "teutonic plates" (I assume those are the round ones on the fat lady who is singing?)
But here's one from REAL life:
A guy was talking about how his wife is looking for a job, she hasn't had any REAL offers, "but she's gotten a few nipples." (so long as you get something!) | |

The peacemaking meeting scheduled for today has been canceled due to a conflict.
Remember in prayer the many who are sick of our community.
Smile at someone who is hard to love. Say Hell to someone who doesn't care much about you.
Don't let worry kill you off - let the Church help.
Miss Charlene Mason sang I will not pass this way again, giving obvious pleasure to the congregation.
For those of you who have children and don't know it, we have a nursery downstairs.
Next Thursday there will be tryouts for the choir. They need all the help they can get.

Not a typo really but i found a picture with a movie theater in the background the movies that was playing 3 movies, in this exact order:
SPY KIDS
BLOW
POKEMON
my sister and i were a little drunk, looking through some old pictures...we still laugh about it today
I had one similar that I took a photo of at the time. I was looking at submitting it to National Lampoon as it fit in with the True Facts book. Mine was following the release of the first Harry Potter, when the Christian right was denouncing HP as satanic. My photo showed the theatre marquee of my hometown and the three movies playing at that time. So the picture was of the three movies in the frame, the text atop each other followed by the showtimes, the films being Harry Potter, Riding in Cars with Boys, From Hell.
Caption would be "Hey, the fundamentalists were right..." | |

Posted: 10/12/2009 12:33:33 AM | A movie marquee goof I have heard about from way in the past.
When the original "The Fly" with Vincent Price was first released one theatre (somewhere !) had "Vincent Price's Fly opens Friday" on it's marquee. Sounds a little contrived but true or not it was funny. | |

Posted: 10/13/2009 8:48:39 AM | The letters T and G are quite close on the key board.
I learned this the hard way.

The letters T and G are quite close on the key board.
The letters R and T are really close as well... I was reminded of it many times.
The funniest one I suppose was when I was typing a letter addressed to our then Estate Manager, Ms Birch... ...yep, I did type T instead of R in her name...
And noticed it only when I looked at the copy AFTER sending the letter to her...
But the funny thing is - that is exactly how most of my neighbours were calling her behind her back - she was a real BI*CH!!
By the way, she never responded to that letter... And I didn't want to ask her... | |

Posted: 10/14/2009 5:08:33 AM | And another one:
Although it might be more for a "funny sex stories" thread, it's still to do with typos.
Our relationship with my ex was at the point when we were exchanging fantasies by email every day. One day he wrote to me:
"I dream of you kicking my b*lls for hours and paying with my c**k every day"...
Obviously he had a poblem with typing "l" in the right places...
But just the thought of fulfilling his dream the way he asked me, has made me laugh for the rest of the day... | |
