Funniest Typo Yet!

Since I type all day at my job, typos are a common occurrence. Thank the good Lord for spell check, you know?

One of these days, I’m going to have to write a list of my funniest typos, but just a few days ago, I made my funniest one yet.

Intended sentence: “…working over 50 hours a week.”

Typo: “…whoring over 50 hours a week.”

Oops! Talk about your big mistakes.

It's only funny because it's not true. I'd like to see your list though.

Oh...my...goodness.

That's an instant classic.

Tob - I know!!! I was shocked for an instant, and then I could NOT stop laughing. I was like, "Well, THAT'S not what I meant!"

OK, I was going to make a comment but I'm not sure it would make it through the inappropriate filter. So I guess I won't. Glad you caught the typo though...

IT would be even funnier if he had caught the typo!

For Shame! Jezebel!
This reminds me of several typos I encountered in my own life. But the one that comes immediately to mind is when I dictated "further efforts would be futile," and the copy came back "further efforts would be feudal". Several recipients immediately grabbed horses, outfitted themselves in armor and prepared for a joust.
Took a little more than "Whiteout" to correct...
