most embarassing typo?

My Husband had an accident on the way to our honeymoon and at the time I was writing all kinds of letters about it. I had to write a statement about the impact of his accident and wrote "marred life" instead of "married life" but then again that was pretty apt too. Years ago I did a course in computer skills and typing and at the end of it I received a certificate listing skills I had learned. These skills included "tough typing techniques". I'm hoping they meant touch typing because I'm not really a tough kind of person.

lol! That was funny! I however pride myself on being a good typist, so it's very rare that I make a typo. My sense of spelling is also pretty good. In fact, most of my friends ask me to proof-read their documents to find out the mistakes remaining after spell-checking, so I often come across many 'pearls'. One of my friends had written the following: "I passed away from my engineering course with distinction" !!!! The most common mistakes that my friends make are things like 'loose' for 'lose', 'adopt' for 'adapt'. Nothing like the gem that you had!

Hmmm..... can't think of a typo as embarassing as that, but I can think of a guy in my class with some sort of speech challenge who, when he tried to tell me I was a good pianist, he said I was a gppd p3nis. I know he couldn't help it, and that's why I was the ONLY one who didn't laugh at the poor guy. A lady I know typoed her own name, recently. It was just on a group of friends, so we all laughed at the fun of it all.

I have rather long nails so i deal with typos alot. you may even find some in this response. i dont think I can remeber when my most embarassing typo was but im sure that I have had many...

My typos usually result in gibberish. But on another board someone was typing about something sorta boring like typing her term paper. She was probably trying to say. "I tried to shift..." but she left the 'f' out. She never changed it, the rest of the post was nothing special, but we had a great laugh over it.

That must have been a very embarrasing typos Perrygunight. I would have turned red like an apple. So far, I haven't got such an embarrasing event. But thank you for sharing your story. I'll be very careful with typos now..Have a great day! (^^,)

I can't say that I have ever had a typo that was as embarassing as yours. Sometimes I miss a letter in a word. I started a discussion here that has the word joined in it, except I typed joned and didn't see it until after I posted. I agree, if you miss the right letter, it can be quite embarassing. PEACE
