If you're anything like me, your literacy is questionable. I'll give some examples but I kind of want to be assured I'm not alone in these *really* bizarre misreadings, so I want other people to post some too....just, you know, to make me seem more (or less?) sane.
Well, most recently I was scrolling down the forum index here and saw that the most recently post in the Music forum was in the "Old Ladies" thread. A second look revealed it was actually the "Oldies" thread. Riiiiight...
Of course, an all time favorite came from health class one year...we had been given a list of the benefits of excercise. I SWEAR that it said "Prevents Permanent Death" the first and second times I read it, but the third time it said "Prevents Premature Death". :-\
I'm speechless, as always.
I don't easily misread things, while I specialize in finding special nicknames for artists (mainly those I dislike), based on their names and my association to them (the names)... 8)
i misread a lot and and i mispost a lot too... so don't mind my comments ;-D
I cant spell lol, but i know what u mean Q, but right now i cant think of anything i have misread lately! Im sure it wont be too long b4 i do tho ;P
it must be psychological coz i just opened the freezer and saw some solero ice lollies that i thought said *flesh orange* but no it said *fresh* i really need to go the optician again! ::)
Edit- yup just done it again, this time in a convo with rob, i thought he said *pokez* (coz he did that last night wen i was trying to work fruitylopps and wasnt responding) but he actually said *peekz* I blame you Q for settin this thread up, now i cant read lol :suffer:
*gives his glasses to kim*
..i still have contacts so you can borrow my glasses for a while ;-D ...or has it nothing to do with bad eyesight?? ;-D
im just me...stupid! lol
I misread things all the time. Then again, I'm an idiot and my glasses aren't strong enough for me, so yeah, lol.
Bwahahahaha! I have victory over you, Kimmieh! Now you shall forever be slightly less literate than you were before you came to this thread!
And soon, I shall be in control of all the world's brain cells!!
Okay, so...I suppose I shouldn't admit that I thought the "edit" in Kimmie's post said "head"... ;]
HA HA! now who is the less than brainy one...i feel power returning to my brain once more...no wait a minute, i dont...i just thought that spark was the 2 brain cells rubbing together, infact i think i lost one instead :'(
Stop insulting yourself Kimmie >:(, same goes to others that insult themselves >:(
Have a nice day :P :suffer:
I misread things all the time mostly cause i refuse to wear my glasses unless im reading a book, not cause they look bad or anything <i look good no matter what :P> just they are uncomfortable, but yeah i always misread things my friend matt says to me and he has a fun time laughing at me.
I misread things often, but it's normally right after I wake up.
Misreading's fun, I do that a lot when I'm dead tired. ;) I've had some really strange ones though, I can't recall them but one involved seeing a pervy sentence that wasn't there. ;)
Yeah i misread something once and it sounded pervy but it was because i misread it :-\
What also happens is my eye sometimes wanders onto a word on a page and I have a helluva time finding that word because I was actually reading a text on a whole other part of that page. :-\
