Friday Funnies

STATUS: I love this time of the morning. All tasks on the TO DO list are possible!

What’s playing on the XM or iPod right now? HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS by Ella Fitzgerald

This one is way too good not to share. Best chuckle error caused by auto-correct that I've seen in a good long time. For context, NLA owns our office unit within a larger building and the management office sent out an email about an upcoming repair. Talk about the importance of proofreading. I share the exact email sent in all its glory!

Enjoy!

Hi Kristin,

The door contractor will be on site to fix the other half of the front door on Friday, December 2 or Monday, December 5. Hope this isn’t an incontinence.

If I had been drinking coffee, it would have just come out my nose.

That's hilarious!

Kristin, if you like that kind of humor, you should see the movie GNOMEO & JULIET (if you haven't already). Juliet's father makes word mistakes like that through the whole movie. Hilarious. :D

My suggested reply:

Well, Pat. That depends...

Hmmm. I hope a contractor can fix my plumbing works when I get a little older.

So hilarious! I love it! Almost as fun as reading instructions written by the Chinese.

Sounds somewhat like the patient who meant to say she was incapacitated, and informed the paramedic she had been "decapitated." The medic figured the surgeons must have done a pretty good job.

:D
