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!"

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.
