On my Internet welcome screen a few days ago, there was a headline that I thought said, "Math use rising for kids." I thought, "Well, that's a good thing, right?" Then I looked again, and saw that the headline was actually, "METH use rising for kids," which, well, isn't so good.
I can also recall seeing a sign advertising chocolate silk pie, but I originally saw the word "silk" as "sex."
Anyone else ever misread stuff like that?

Haha, but whilst we're on the subject, I can get you a copy for $5 if you like? It's hot stuff!

There's a thread on the Frank Black Making Noise forum about a Honeycomb promo. I just read it as "Honeycomb porno," even though it wasn't the first time I'd seen the topic.

I'll bet you were disappointed to find out it was just a bakery!
Or did they have erotic cakes?

When I first came to Catalunya I thought the signs for bakeries, Forn, said Porn.

Yes, just like Afternoon Delight is delightful for afternoons.
The song isn't delightful for ANYBODY, though.

There used to be a Chinese restaurant in my area called "Hunan Delight," and I thought it was "HUMAN Delight" when I was a kid. No, I didn't think they served human flesh there, just that it was delightful FOR humans, or something like that.

I was reading the 'First concert' thread just now and I thought I read floop's as 'Joan Jett & The Blackhearts'. Sadly it was just 'oan Jett & The Black hearts'.
I was just gonna tell him how cool he was too.

I had one yesterday. I was on Amazon.co.uk, looking for a film for Kitty, when I saw a list someone had made, entitled 'A bunch of crappy films (which are good)'. I decided to have a look, and half away down I saw the film 'Crap fishing with Liam Dale'. Oh how I laughed. How I laughed until I realised it was actually called 'Carp fishing with Liam Dale'. So then I laughed some more.
Crazy days.
Love, love, my season |

Sometimes I see "and" or "the" and have to do a double-take
because I can't figure out what I'm reading.
 I still believe in the excellent joy of the Frank |

Robert Pollard famously misread a sign saying "Beethoven" as "Bee Thousand", and look where that got him! |
