Funniest Typos You Missed?

[ThisAdamGuy]

We've all made typos, but hopefully we catch the majority of them before they go live. Occasionally one slips past and gets published for the entire world to see. What are some of the funniest typos you've accidentally posted?

In Juryokine, I meant to write "Toke reached out with his powers" but accidentally put "Toke reached out with his parents." I fixed it when I realized it was there a couple of weeks...or months...later, but I still laugh at the image it puts in my head of the hero essentially using his parents as a pair of grappling hooks.

This one may not exactly a typo, but it might as well be. In the first chapter of the first Amber Silverblood book, I wrote, and then decided to keep, this sentence: "An arm protruded from the wall, as if the brick wall had suddenly decided to grow an arm." In my defense, that was one of the first books I ever wrote, but...who am I kidding, there's no excuse for keeping that in my book.

I forget the typos often because I focused on the lore of novels and media. And so, I can't remember any funny typos.

However, sometimes I spotted some weird phrasing that caused me to think of wild scenes.

In an SCP X MCU fanfic in Webnovel, there's a scene of an auction held by Dark & Carter Inc. and they're selling 2 SCPs.

At the last auction, the items shown were an SCP. The Dream Projector SCP. I forgot its ID number and its name. But it goes like this.

The SCP was turned on and caught Tony's mind in the auction hall and projected his imagination. What is it? Well, it's him daydreaming about mating the FMC who's sitting beside him. Well, that's a little smut. And then somehow the wording convinced me that they're noclipping into the walls too.

I don't know how, but I won't question it.

Maybe not a typo as it is author was misinformed, but I called my MC a "dense piece of dolomite" thinking that dolomite is fossilized dino poo (for clarification, my MC is a literal piece of stone). What I was looking for was actually coprolite, but I won't change it because only archaeology nerds, geology nerds and anyone else who reads this will know for sure.

I typed angle instead of angel, and someone sent this:

 

[Seaspecter]

Instead of bowl I had bowel for a few chapters…

 

[Biggest-Kusa-Out-There]

A king giving Mc a deep "boy" instead of a "bow".... which i tried leaving in but got called out so i had to change, sadly

 

[Hans.Trondheim]

Just the classic 'your' and 'you're' for me.

I typed angle instead of angel, and someone sent this:
View attachment 34576

I believe there are angels among us.

 

[Kenjona]

Not in a book. But some official e mail requesting for "I wanted too asses in XYZ protocol and requested two subject matter experts to assess me."

 

[Aijikan]

Why r u so interested in other people's matters? You are a creep?
Are you an NSA agent trying to spy on us, unemployed guys?

 

[DeOwl]

"What should I address you ass, miss?"
Someone did end up calling me out on this though.

 

[Bobple]

Man... I've nearly made every possible bad typo

Not sure what's the funniest.
I've done some some of the above ones.

I once typed duck instead of dick and this became one of the most liked lines of my novel on WebNovel.
I also typed stood for my main character who is a wheelchair user ?.

 

[l8rose]

I think my most memorable one was:
Iron Bull was not very clam.

 

[expentio]

One of my MCs, a crazy, somewhat sociopathic slime is named "Liqu" yet I rather often accidentally due to proximity write "Loqu" instead, which kinda fits as well.

 

[Elmir_Arch-Ham_of_Omega]

The the the

 

[RepresentingSilence]

What the duck

Not a spelling mistake but I had thought that the word twink was slang for a tall and lanky man only to find out that was not at all what it means. I had used it for a descriptor of one character several times.

As far as spelling mistakes go, there are simple ones like calling Scott, "Scoot." The worst one I had though was when I tried saying, "she was like an angel,: and somehow it became, "she liked anal." I caught it immediately but it took me out of my writing mood for a solid 10 minutes while I contemplated life decisions and laughed my ass off.

actually it was in an English essay back in high school. I had like no sleep the day before. Because project work, deadline was at the end of the week, and I wrote every "as" as "ass".
in writing I always had a bad the bad habit of "the the", and recently mistyping my characters names in my latest work like
(Cecilia --> Cecil) (Claire --> Clair). But nothing is more embarrassing than my punctuation, I am 19 and I still suck at it.
