Devastating Forum Typos

Not unlike "auto-correct" on smartphones, typos on the MFP forums can send a string topic flying wildly off-course.

And it's almost always funny to me...

Examples:

"I don't like treadmills. I hate feeling like a gerbil."
vs
"I don't like treadmills. I hate feeling the gerbil."

"Do you clean out your bowls after every meal?"
vs
"Do you clean out your bowels after every meal?"

    Not directly relevant, but just too damn funny to pass-up...

    Autocorrect got me on New Years Eve when I sent a message that I was bringing Ritz ( the crackers), and instead told my brother that I was bringing tits.

    Poor guy was so disappointed.

    Tits crackers with cheese... would arguably be the greatest thing since sliced head.

    I'm not sure if the errors in this were meant to be ironic...
  • Or

    "I'd rather be pissed off than pissed on"
    vs
    "I'd rather be pissed off then pissed on"

    Don't directly relevant, but just too damn funny to pass-up...

    Not sure I understand "Don`t directly relevant`

    is it a deliberate mistake?

    Should it be

    "Isn`t directly relevant"

    :tongue:
