Lovely typos

[Randomnerd]

A place to gently cradle the fortuitous, funny, or poignant fingertip malapropisms we find within this parish.
I'll start:

A parishioner is giving advice to someone here wanting a bike for a charity trip. Very thorough advice, including the requirement for:

"... a saddle that is good for you, a handlebar configuration that minimizes stress on your joints and a pedal/shoe system with no hotpots. Your body should be conditioned for all day riding. These are all point of contact issues..."

A pedal system with hotpot now seems the perfect thing for long-distance. Reach down, take a spoonful of rich, gravied meat, and thinly sliced potato. Or stop, maybe, and dunk in a wedge of bread? Delicious.

Not entirely convinced by shoe hotpot having seen the state of some folks feet.

This is a classic

Don't knock it, Twentysix, until you've tried it. Extra spuds are already on the shopping list chez Random. I'm looking round for Look-compatible casserole dishes.

Nice one Dogtrousers!

My favourite thing about this is that I've never known if it was intentional or not, but either way would have driven Bateman absolutely nuts.

Where is the typo? Missing C in acquisitions or something more subtle?
Who is Patrick Bateman

The C before the Q is what's missing.

Patrick Bateman is the protagonist of a book (then film) called American Psycho. Not for the faint of heart, but one of my all time favourites.

Sorry, but I can't see it. Where is the typo?

Top right, second line.

Spotted out of the corner of my eye at the gym today - BBC News just before 11am.

"Our greatest monarchs have been lizard breath the second and Victoria".

Not the best moment to fail to ensure that the voice recognition software knows a common name.....

I believe this is from ABC news..

Many years ago in the Rugby Leaguer they reported that a player had been fined and banned for a couple of games by the Rugby League disciplinary panel, the offence was reported as Leading with a firearm,……as opposed to a forearm

I got this lovely email from my eldest son's school yesterday!
