He wood chuck, he wood, as much as he cod if a would chuck cod chuck would.

Here's a nice one:

reading allowed (instead of aloud)

Aren't we glad that it is permitted?! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

The following is a real find, since it manages to combine two instances of homophone abuse with the dreaded (sp?):

This, too; three (mis-spelled) homophones in only half a sentence.

Misused homophones combined with a misquote.

Here's a lovely example: Must be the book in which...
Or am I just inclined to
???

We now know that the black robes were not dirty - their owners, the "wringwraiths", must have washed them!

I hope it is too.

More of a homage than a gripe...
In the context of the thread it was hard to work out what this meant! I thought it was like "LOOK OUT!!! Behind you!" (I honestly did - oops!), and it wasn't til later I guessed that maybe Burrahobbit had taken a short leave of absence. Maybe to go and have something to do with a Troll's pocket.

On a very old thread, I found this:

A small vile what, I wonder? Chipmunk?

How about the 'Naz-Ghouls'?

Owwwww.

I swore on my pet elephant's grave that this doozie would not go unnoticed. From an RPG discussion thread:
Okay, fine, be that way - we didn't want you anyway! Rest in peace, Tibor...

Man, this topic rocked... glad to see it back.

Here's a good won (misuse intended):

Do you think Lord of the Rings should have one a Golden Globe?

Um, but aren't ONE and A synonymous...? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Couldn't let this pass:

I suppose they could have done excavations, but I really thought that was more the Dwarves' mileu.

Possibly because harts are herbivores and hobbits are too portly to chase them.

Excerpt from recent chat-log, #BD:

* Din****er fined pickle on floor...eats it anyway
Ga*******n> DF!
Din*****er> *fines

An intriguing economic model.

...agreeing with a favorite character/creature: I guess Gollum came, saw and concurred! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

From an RPG in which the character is a Blacksmith: Must have been dramatacists' off-season, that the poor costumers have to work in a smithy.

Apologies to the author of the very fine post from which this came, but I couldn't resist it:

He was a martyr to hayfever ... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

True, true, I guess he'd never get elected Mayor of Hobbiton with the way he behaved in the movie...

I'm puzzled over Just what is it that changes colour with such difficulty??

A colour-blind chamaeleon?

Oooh, a fresh typo (with the utmost respect to the author, who is probably editing it out as I speak):

I wonder how exactly one "wretchs" and what it sounds like...

The literacy of the LotR experts: Mental undressing??

I think that this is the most unfortunate misuse of a homophone to date:

The Downs takes a washing on this one:

Tide? Blue Cheer? Javex?

Bethberry

<Annundalia> Me and my friend were balling when we found out.


I was bawling too.

I would suggest that they are what Ron washes when he's finished his darks.

What a gruesome way to die.

From a discussion on BarrowDowns' chat site:

Bb

Something I found on the Chat:
The person apparently doesn't know about "to", "too", and "two". I'll assume it was a typographical error (however, he didn't correct himself at all). [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Where are the brakes located on riots? That would be a very good thing to know!

Can't say that surprises me. After all, we do have rather a lot of precipitation in Britain. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

I don't mean to be mean adding this in here, but it made me smile! Would you say that he/she needs a dictionary or to type slower?

Actually, I need the dictionary as it's not a homophone!

Ah, the joys of gardening when you're young and hale... I wonder what became of their flowers after the elves hit fifty?

A thousand apologies to the person who posted this, but I just couldn't resist. Just how much does a Barrow weigh? Would you include everything inside it in the weight?

Presumably that'll be Humpback Whales. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Many many apologies to the person who wrote this, but I thought of this thread the minute I saw it and laughed for ages...
Like airliners? or fighter jets maybe?

Another winner is when you run a couple of words together...
