Haven't we all smiled at the strange twists letters take when we type quickly? Here's our chance to share some of those that inadvertantly give new meaning to the sentence in which we find them.
...the froging of the Rings is not remembered by anybody living.

Here's one that has been posted on the homophone thread, though it is actually a typo, and what a great one!

Another misadventure:

-With the past-expiration date rat boys?
-Frat

Actually, Merendis, judging by the social scene at Duke, the word "rat" is rather appropriate. Also, the word "Mordor," but we won't get into that for now.

this one post was so full of mistakes I didn't know where to start or finish. So here's the whole thing. i knw sorry ok i wil use the period thingy. u are righ talot of variations in elvish since tolkien never completed it so they expanded it. its ok to haev diff varations like as in chinese have liek two varations for one language like manderness adn cantonese. so i mean having diffs is ok jsut not like u know totally something a 5 year old made but i would like to learn them all. Grey company also has a place were u can learn uh the other elven language but its in there secluded dictonary. SO u can find it to learn that and other stuff ijust would liek to learn all elvish if i could well
Quel fara= Good hunting

Silmarien: Wasn't that from the Language Forum? You should've seen what it took to introduce that poster to the period. It used to be all one big, run-on thought. And she still doesn't get the concept of Grey-Company Elvish versus Tolkien Elvish.

[Beren87]

I just found this one in the Chat, "whispers to herself "u guys r so meen'"

Now what makes it really amusing is that she's mad because someone just called her a man. So is she attempting to say men or mean here? The world will never know...

Edit: Just found another one by the same person.

[VanimaEdhel]

Beren87:
"whispers to herself "u guys r so meen'"

What I find amusing is that she managed to spell "whispers" and "herself", and wrote out "to" instead of saying "2", but she goes into "u" and "r", and misspells "mean", saying "meen". You would think that she would have said, "whsprs 2 hrslf 'u guys r so meen'", or, "whispers to herself, 'you guys are so mean'". The fact that she did a combination is quite interesting.

[Diamond18]

Actually, they got their speak wrong. It should probably be "off the heezie fo sheezie". I don't know what "heezie" is supposed to connote, but I know that "fo sheezie" means "for sure". Basically it means that he's "cool", or "neat", or "slammin'", or "hot", or "phat", or whatever term you want to use for it. How do I know this?

"Elvin"

"This whorl orc sh*t"

Also,
Some weird person on some weird site put THIS:

námaríe.

The person obviously meant to put Namarié, but has put the accents in ALL the wrong places!! Gah!

Namarié! (For real!)
From
Elróthiel, the Elven Goddess of Hilariosity and Laughter!

[Elróthiel]

In hobbbit disguise

And ANOTHER rare species! Almost as rare as that honnit and that hoobit! Three similar rare species! The hobbbit, the hoobit, and the honnit. All rather similar to their not so rare cousins, the hobbits.
Honnits tend to have very thin, black legs, while sporting a nice pair of bee-wings on their backs.
Hoobits tend to wear shoes. Mostly boots.
Hobbbits tend to hold their consonants for a longer time than the others, and are almost indistinguishable from hobbits.
If you should perchance be talking to a hobbbit, run away quickly, for any sign of laughter on your part will be challenged as a mickey taking of the speech of this unusual creature!

Namarié!

Critics have been saying ever since LOTR was published that it is just a faze and it will die out. Well guesse what?
A faze? You mean a haze? LotR is rather hazy, with all the references to earlier mythologies. Or do you mean maze? I mean, it does get confuzzling, but not that much. Maybe it's a laze, but what activities can a book participate in? A graze? DON'T EAT IT!

I always get strange looks for writing in the dunes

How do you get the ink to stay on the sand?

I often find litter and leftovers from picnics strwen about

Huorns are always Huorny.

Eeee, ah, that pun was so bad it was lethal! Phantom you cad. I'm dying (of giggles). smilies/biggrin.gif

I'd like to take this moment to point to the subject heading, Typos (or: Is It a Freudian Slip?) to those who question the suitability of the original joke. May not be a textbook typo, but the alternate meaning could qualify as a Freudian Slip. Furthermore, it doesn't even merit a PG-13 rating, and so if you think that's too riské, you would be horrified by the Entish Bow RPG. I rest my case.

I'm sorry, but I don't know what a Freudian slip really is. I plead young age... Would this comment qualify? a jagged scare running across his face. And what exactly does a scare look like? smilies/wink.gif

I found this one in a REALLY old post

I didn't especially like the winged Nazghul owing to the fact that they did not look believable while flying.
Pardon? what was that?

I'm sorry, but I don't know what a Freudian slip really is.

It's defined as "A slip of the tongue that is motivated by and reveals some unconscious aspect of the mind." In other words, when you accidentally say what's on your mind. smilies/wink.gif Or, I suppose, it could be referring to Freud's heretofore unknown habit of wearing his mother's slip, but that's debatable...

What she means is when you type something that has either two meanings, eg: aroused Huorns; or else there is a typo and the sentence means something else, eg: writing in dunes.
Therefore, chat mistakes and typos (such as the nazghul one we just had) do not qualify.

Edit: In two posts, I too shall do the wave for chronological order.
