in one of my school reports... the english teacher wrote to me:'she must proofread more often to chek her work..' ;) that was a good one!

Not the funniest, but embarrasing. I always mistype "and" when in a hurry. Inevitably, it comes out as "nad". Good thing I don't mispell sand very often...that would be alittle harder to explain. "No really, I meant 'sand', not nads!"

My realestate agent advertised our bungalow in the local newspaper as a "three bedroom dung"
We still managed to sell the house despite his typo. :)

Spell check (depending on the program) is not 100% foolproof. That leads to some pretty funny uh ohs. For example, the name Trish being changed to Trash. I saw a personnel report once for a Trish that was a disciplinary action request based on an employee who got drunk, was arrested for disorderly conduct, and then charged with assault because she repeatedly spit on the officers who arrester her. Hilarious in that context.

As a proofreader (in Dutch), one of the most common typos I encounter is the word 'typfout' (should be typefout) which actually means 'typo'... a bit ironic!

I work with a guy called Diarmuid (Irish for Dermot). He isn't the most proficient on computers and when he sends emails they automatically go through a spell check so he has on more than one occation signed off his emails as Dairymaid! :)

Chicken farts instead of chicken parts.

I was once typing up some signs for an orthopedic seminar. On one of them I had meant to say "Oh my aching bones". Instead I put "Oh my aching boner". Good thing it was caught before it went to print!!!

"Eat smart kids" instead of "Eat smart, kids"
by Mr_Natural Abstractor of the Quintessence on June 8th, 2009
It was in a church bulletin for Blessed Sacrament Church, many years ago. It was supposed to read, "Mary Magdalene washed the feet of Jesus with her tears," but the r in tears got changed to a t. I think they printed about 5k copies of the Sunday bulletin.

A headline on the front page of a newspaper:

A newspaper clipping of a boy with a deer he shot, and a caption reading that he had "shit" the deer.
I couldn't stop laughing, even after it was getting very painful to laugh.

I've written goofle or foofle instead of google many times, lol.
by 23Skidoo on June 8th, 2009
Dunno if it qualifies as a typo but a brothel here (Czech Republic) had an adertisement saying:
Visit us "...where you can feel yourself like a king"
I always figured I could do that at home for free :-)

A local restaurant was advertising for:

Talking doll that says 0 of your favorite phrases from a movie!

It was on this set of obviously pirated foreign DVDs. It said Corpse Barbie, but what it actually meant was Corpse Bride.

When illiterate people use words they think are correct.
like "breaks" for "brakes" ( in talking about the brakes on a car)
When they type "router" when they are trying to convey the word "rotor"
My favorite, is when they type "must of" when its "must have, or must've.
