My favorie kind of errors...

...the ones people PAY for! Here's another from the newspaper:


I would also either omit 'for' or substitute it with 'your.'

I need to start checking these Canadian Tire ads (and/or read the newspaper more often) because apparently they're a goldmine of errors! :p

Stupid Hotmail!

This one is more of a pet peeve of mine, but the junk mail filter at Hotmail is definitely getting dumberer all the time!


I don't have junk mail here because I just deleted 34 of them, stupid! That also includes one VERY obvious one in my inbox! >:-(

I must say that for the first EIGHT YEARS of using my Hotmail e-mail address, which was basically my only one, I got maybe 1 or 2 spam messages a month, sometimes less! Awesome! Then they "upgraded" their system and I got flooded, sometimes getting 7 or 8 a day. Not a lot for many people, but a massive amount for me, considering how amazingly well I'd done all those years. It eventually went down again to maybe 1 or 2 a day, but now I'm back up to 5 or 6 a day after another "upgrade." I swear they have the dumberest junk mail filters on Earth!

"I'll take it out...on their s[c]ulls!"

The above quote is from the SCTV skit/movie "On the Waterfront Again", starring Bobby Bittman, Lola Heatherton and Lin Ye Tang. The below picture is from the arcade game Black Tiger.


It was found in someone's signature somewhere. Not sure if the mistake is in the game or if a person made that themselves, but I likes it either way.

Oh, and whilst watching a certain show, a guy was doing the ol' quotation marks with your fingers thing to describe some shoes. He said: cool "lime green shoes." The thing is, the shoes were lime green. The issue was whether they were "cool" or not. ;)

Chimie artificielle

These three are from the Naturalchemist game site. Motion Twin, the company that makes this and other games, is French, so I give them some slack, as English is not their first language. But sometimes they make me laugh.


Come on, it's spelled correctly right down there!



I'm guessing they meant artistic... If not, that's an interesting group of alchemists!



Rack to the Future!

SICK typo, dude!

From an old BMX video:


I was entertianed by this one. ;)

Oh, and when I went to name the file (sickbmxvid.png), I accidentally put sicbmxvid the first time. Y'know, sic, as in I made a mistake. *rolling eyes*
