Do you wrink your clothes? I'd better not do this to this set of clothes I bought. The instructions clearly ask me not to 'wrink' it!
Now that I've gotten your attention, this is one of the many funny typos and errors that come in...

We now live in a gated village of about 120 houses. It’s been built in various stages but there is very little rhyme or reason as to the house numbers. Visitors and tradesmen sometimes drive round and round trying to find a...

I'm just attaching a screenshot of what I ended up typing when I searched for "Tokyo India Medals List" to find the list of medals India has won in this Olympics.
Thankfully Google fixed the spelling otherwise I would have been...

I was musing over my typos this morning. I typed a "d" when I meant to type an "s." In my mind I said, "D must be next to S." So I checked, and I was right.
In that moment, I realized that I can type fairly fast, but I have idea...

Tonight, my Lions Club held its annual officer installation banquet. I was amazed to note that the new slate of officers had agreed to serve for the next 180 centuries.
As a self-published author, I can sympathize with all the...

Trader Joe's sells a self-contained Caesar Salad, including dressing. It's pretty darned good, and you can add chicken to it (or whatever else you might have on hand).
I bought some the other day, and had it for lunch tonight. I...

Now and again, I encounter an old comment of mine with a typo that could change its meaning or render it incomprehensible. Sometimes said comments have no responses on them.
OCD person that I am, I hit edit to correct the error....

Here's a post I made with a major typo in the title I wanted to type 'fogging' and got autocorrected to 'digging' after a typo. I realised it about 2 hours later! Even though the test if the text in the post was ok, I'm sure it...

It's frustrating when you found out that there are typographical errors in your birth certificate. It can be corrected but it takes time for you to get the annotated birth certificate in security paper. You need to spend money and...

Most humans make errors, and since I assume the majority of myLot members are human, we make mistakes, it's a given. It may not happen often, but when it does, it does - it is not the end of the world as we know it.
I have...

Actually, the weed whacking guy (waking) is probably shouting, "Thank God I'm done with that job!"
He called before 9 am today asking if it was OK to do the job today instead of tomorrow. We certainly weren't gong to say no LOL!...

Yesterday we were rather excited that the search for someone to do our little yard project was over. I mean after all, the guy seemed eager to do the work. We did find out that he is setting up the business for his son. So the...

I do more often than you'd think. But I correct most of them when I spot them. Most of that happens before publishing a discussion or a comment.
Most of my typos are a result of finger slipping because I am using a virtual...

I uploaded my pictures from the last couple of days and discovered this one. For a few minutes, I couldn't remember why I'd even taken it. Then I remembered: When I type fast (relatively speaking), some characters register and...

I was checking out the Facebook page of the woman we bought this house from. We are not Facebook friends, but she has her settings so that anyone can see her photos, etc.
After you read the comments you might say, 'Well, she is...
