Things you've miss read.

Okay, so i just opened the escapist and out of the corner of my eye miss read the OPSM (or whatever it is) advert banner as "ORGASM <3".
yesterday i also read a friends facebook status which said "sweating buckets" as "swelling bollocks" then after double taking read it as "sweating buttocks"
i was just wandering weather this happened to many other people and what was the funniest time that it did...

First thing that comes to mind: the other day I was excited to finally be fighting the illusive Fire Pimp, but no that was just a misplaced p...

Well, funnily enough, I read "I was just wandering weather" instead of "wondering whether".

(I think this is about the only possible thread, where this is trolling AND on-topic :S)

Beat me to it.

There was a thread on the Escapist last week entitled "Your opinion in cannabis" (or similar). Well it was early in the morning and in my bleary-eyed state I misread 'cannabis' as 'cannibals' and actually wrote out a four paragraph reply before I realised what a massive 'tard I'd been. Needless to say I hit the delete key rather than the post button on that one.

I misread your Thread title as saying Miss Read. Odd...

Hunt's ketchup packets. That's all I'm gonna say.

While playing WoW I had a starting quest that said something like "Speak with Tarindrella." I thought it said Thinderella and it immediately made me think of Yahtzee's "Age of Conan" review.

Not misread but I got the wrong idea.
I read Sheeva's fatality that said "Stripped Down" and got excited.

Don't worry. I got excited too.

Y'know in Oblivion when you enter a town with a horse and it says "Your hore was stabled outside the city gates"? Yeah, I read that for ages as saying "stabbed" instead of "stabled", and each time I went into town had to go back out to check that my horse wasn't dead.

And really, captcha? part-time daysiffi? Anyone know what a daysiffi is, if such a thing exists.

I missread the name of Napoleon Bonaparte when I was younger (like 8 or something) as Neapolon, god, I felt stupid years later when I realized it

"misread"

I'm dyslexic so... everything? I misread a sign that said "Oscillating Fans" as "Ovulating Fans"

Oh man, I do that too even when I'm properly awake. I don't think I've ever read it as 'cannabis' the first time I look at it. And every time I think 'well, that's an interesting thread... oh wait."

I incorrectly read things all the time. It can make for an interesting life, that's for sure.

Not misread, but misheard. This happened to my friend.

Friend: So, where were you yesterday
Random dude: I was at a funeral
Friend: Oh, so you ditched school to have fun?
Random dude: ???
Everyone else: He was at a funeral you asshole
Friend: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

What did your friend think he said?
