I just saw a thread called "sony or nintendo" and read it as "i'm my own nintendo" and laughed heartily. :laugh: What... misreadings? have you made that amused you greatly?

I refuse to accept the notion that Jesus loves me! I've personally met Jesus, and he said he thinks I'm a bloody bastard.

... oh, that's not what you were talking about.

I never misread anything. I'm not dilesxiuixc or anything, you know!

I read things wrong all the time because I read them too quickly. Often times in books, two lines will run together, and I have to reread one line to get the gibberish out - maybe one word from the line below will sneak in midsentence to the line above, and it makes it all gobbledegook.

I always read things wrong, and then always end up making an arse of myself :( I cant actually recall anything Ive read wrong recently, but next time I do it, I'll post it :p

I'm not even going to say the things I've read wrong as I have a terrible mind. Let's just say, as one small and tame example, when I was tired on my chorus trip (it was 12 AM at night!) I started reading signs saying "Virgnia Banks!" as something quite different...

That's what usually happens to me.
Although Hsu gets points for using "gibberish" and "goobledegook" in the same sentence...:)

I often attempt to paint things red myself. I usually miss places however, and sometimes use the wrong colour altogether.

I have to presume I had something to do with this? xDDD

I read things wrong all the time. The other day there was some story on the teletext about a British spy who had defected to the Soviets in the 70s or something, only I read it as 'defecating'. So did my mom. It was amusing. xDDD

When I see the word "Virginia" I think "Vagina" and then I turn my head in 180 degrees in a "wtf??" expression and motion, and realize it is only a name... or a state.

I misread things fairly often, or end up thinking the meaning of them is different. I misread cook this morning while revising before a history exam, I was pretty tired. I'm sure you can guess what I read it as! ;P

That's what happened to me when I was exhausted on my school trip! I kept on seeing stuff like "Vagina Banks." xD

I misread your custom title as "I AM CLARK GABLE"! That's how bad I am.

I'm such a horrible reader. I mean, I can read and all, but I rarely get it right. I think I read what I want to read, without much regard to what is actually written.
