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...

Pity about the typo

Judy Evans @JudyEv (382146) • Rockingham, Australia 9 Feb 22

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...

Can you SAY where the letters are on the keyboard when you're not at the keyboard?

The Horse @TheHorse (238317) • Walnut Creek, California 19 Sep 20

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...

DW Davis @DWDavis (25797) • United States 17 Jun 19

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...

What did you have for dinner tonight?

The Horse @TheHorse (238317) • Walnut Creek, California 9 May 19

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...

Do you ever have typo-ridden comments that you can't edit? Duh! I just came up with a solution.

The Horse @TheHorse (238317) • Walnut Creek, California 28 Jan 19

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....

Made a big typo blunder when posting - in the title!

Pitstop @pitstop (15551) • Australia 13 Nov 18

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...

Clerical Error in Birth Certificate

[eds] @ZedSmart (19839) • Philippines 16 Aug 18

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...

If you see an error such as a typo/spelling error on myLot what do you do?

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45490) • United States 6 Apr 17

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...

All over but the shouting!

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45490) • United States 21 Mar 17

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!...

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45490) • United States 21 Mar 17

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...

How often do you make typos on mylot?

Shadi @Madshadi (8840) • Brussels, Belgium 28 Nov 16

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...

Typo or lack of knowledge?

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45490) • United States 6 Dec 15

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...
