And so it was writ...

[Hooked]

I often laugh at the ambiguity of the written word and I thought it might be interesting to start a thread. Please note that my intention is not to make fun of the writer, but of the unintentional ambiguity. Anything that is ambiguous, strange, misspelt thereby giving it a different meaning, is what this thread will be about.

I'll get the ball rolling with this one.

"Rohde was admitted to a clinic for depression treatment after he went on a holiday to Plettenberg Bay."

Gosh! Imagine the tourist ad, "Plettenburg Bay - your holiday dream. Arrive happy - leave depressed"

I've also seen on a number of vendor's sites, the description of a "desert" e-liquid. Personally, I wouldn't want to vape a desert. I should imagine it would be rather dry.

Someone who is interested in DIY wants to "mix myself". I wonder how one does that? Perhaps put a loooooon wooden spoon down your throat to stir the cauldron of undigested food in your stomach?

A colleague asked me if I would like to "meat" her friend. I did. And I did. Married for 6 years. Good times

@TheV I'm glad to hear that you have no beef with your wife. Well done! - or perhaps that should be rare?

I've often seen vendors describe juice as "very sweat"... Sounds delicious.

This was on FB and someone posted a sequel, "The police are threading the events together to stitch a watertight case. The needle of suspicion points towards Mr.Thimble."

You know those add's on youtube we always skip. This one I watched through and was not disappointed.

Saw this on FB today:




Now who on earth would want to assist Omnia - and book to do so? Hell no, I want to go there to eat, not to help someone prepare the meal!
