    Haha!

    I misread "Mood image from Uppsala Star Party" as "Mood image from UPSCALE Star Party".

    "Does my dog love me ?" (in S&T)

    I read it correctly, but every time I see the title, I hear Peter Sellers in the Pink Panther movie asking "Does your dog bite?".

    Not a thread title, but...

    While leafing through my course text book Forensic Science, I came across a case study: "The conviction of Justin Barber." Just for one joyous second, I thought it was someone with a similar name.

    "Called for Jury Duty" in BABBling. It always ends up as "Call Of Duty" somewhere along the way.

    Not a misreading, but I couldn't help but notice that in SMAL, "RCH appearance on coast to coast AM" is directly below "The Weird Stuff".

    Every time I see Closetgeek's OTB thread " How Do I Defend Myself?" I think of a maniac with a banana and a 16 ton weight.

    I keep reading "Question about red shift and the Big Bang Theory..." as "Question about Red Shirts and the Big Bang Theory...".

    For some reason when I saw the first part of "Curiosity EDL - Seven Minutes..." I thought it would end "in heaven".

    I know the "Sticky New Member" thread has been there awhile, but I still chuckle when I read it. It must be the 12 year old in me.

    I just read "What are you reading" as "What are you wearing"?

    Adds a different tone to the question.

    There's a recent one that is always listed in truncated form:
    "Will the Olympics ever ..."
    I was sure that the missing conclusion would be " ... End?", but it wasn't.

    Actually, when I first saw that, I thought it meant Nessie had formerly engaged in discussions in which she pointed out Conspiracy Theorists' errors, but she doesn't do it any more.

    Its true, Nessie used to post here regularly, under the user-name "Humphrey".
