Misreading of the day

  • I misread the BBC news headline "Palin testifies against 'Hacker' " as "Pale testicles agonize teacher"

This misreading is very meaningful in a parallel universe

Wmm misread the words in a BBC News article about the death of the inventor of Altair 8800 computer, "Gates and Allen contacted Dr Roberts after seeing the machine on the front cover of a magazine and offered to write software for it." as "Gated for alien contact, Dr Roberts, after seizing the machines that acted as a cover for Schwarzenegger's role offered to write a softer role for him"

Original article that was misread can be found here
