A friend once added an S, meaning the poor character asked for permission to 'exist' instead of 'exit'. I always like to think that their superior answered "Denied!" and then they disappeared in a puff of disappointment.

The classic, masticate.

My sister used to have a thing about replacing "hypotenuse" with "hippopotamus", which led her math class to make some rather hilarious "just run with it" drawings.

Then I looked out the window and screamed… Snap was spying on me and he was taking a video tape of me! And Loopin was masticating to it! They were sitting on their broomsticks.

More of a pronunciation mistake, but sometimes, when I try to talk about musical instruments, I end up talking about fish by accident. Think about it. You'll understand.

Also, my blood type is a type-O!

I was talking about the word "bass" up there

There have been some great ones on Gaia Online, that I remember from when I used to frequent the site. I hung out mostly in the Community Discussion subforum.

The two that stand out the most were "How do you get gift rape?" and the girl who had made a typo in her username and was asking how she could change it to something other than "Sweat Angel".

True story: one night while a friend and I were driving about around 10pm, we passed a Hancock Fabrics.

The letters H,A, and N were burned out on the neon sign. So there, in big red letters, was the phrase "cock fabrics."

Neither of us had a phone with a camera, but man we were dying laughing at that.

There was a time when I was having difficulty spelling "typo", resulting in lots of "tyop" and "topy" and stuff like that. It doesn't get much more meta than that.

I spend a short while thinking about where the typo in "pimp" is and what word originally intended was.

Only several seconds later, I noticed that the typo is in bear(d). Despite it being juancarlos 11's current title.

@Shima: Technically not that different, is it?

More of a pronunciation thing too, but my sister has a bad habit of mispronuncing "Amythyst" as "Atheist."

A small town I used to live near had a sign near a small grassy sitting area that said (paraphrased):

"Failure to clean up dog fecies will result in a fine."

Yep, they managed to spell "feces" wrong.
