Subject: RE: BS: Misread Threads From: Wolfgang Date: 26 Aug 04 - 06:44 AM Good idea. Report all your alternative thread titles (misreading or mischieving) here. This could rid us of a lot of unneccessary threads: Father of... Uncle of... Great great aunt of ... all would have been reported here only. I dislike threads only started for the fun of the title, but I love seeing all the ideas you have. Same like the joke threads: Have them all at one place. My evil ideas were: Fatter by sprite HESPERIS IS GETTING MARRIED AND SON I' racist but I don't vote BNP Wolfgang |

Subject: RE: BS: Misread Threads From: freda underhill Date: 13 Jun 04 - 10:53 AM US big guts invading Australian politics Fat Americans have been commenting on Australian politics in recent days. Federal Labor president Carmen Lawrence said the United States administration had a lot of gall, throwing their weight round like this. Dr Lawrence's comments were the widest from any Labor figures in the wake of attacks by President George W Bush and other senior administration officials. Lawrence said that the comments were a load of blubber, and that US-Australia alliance would not be corseted by obese fat cats feeding the electorate with offel comments. But Dr Lawrence said it was unseemly for US officials to become involved in Australian menus. "Australians are a proud people and don't much like being told how much to eat by other governments," Dr Lawrence said. "The relationship between our two countries goes much wider and broader than that. Asked if she thought the US government was working to re-elect Mr Howard, Dr Lawrence said: "I have to say the bloating of some of the comments must lead to that digestion." |

Not getting any younger. I mean face it -- you're probably farting more than you'd like to hear about, too. Amos, did you hear about the guy who went to the doctor, complaining that he was troubled with extremely noxious, but silent, flatulence? Told the doc that he'd already passed such gas four times since they'd been talking. Doctor said, "Well, first thing we're going to do is get your hearing checked." So if I turn off my hearing aid I'll be okay? Next thing you know you'll want me to get a rocking chair and sit in the shade all day, sippin' decaf whilst hummin' "Shine on harvest moon" and "Back in the USSR" and other old folk songs. Ya ever hum while sippin' decaf? It's messy! |
Subject: RE: BS: Misread Threads From: wysiwyg Date: 13 Jun 04 - 09:25 AM It depends on how one learned to read, to a certain extent. People who learned by the word-recognition method (as many of us do before we go to school) tend to get it wrong sometimes, especially when tired or when it's time for new glasses. For this to work I think we need to give the thread title as it IS as well as what we SAW. Penelope Routledge OBE Penelope Routledge OB/GYN ~Susan |

Subject: RE: BS: Misread Threads From: Ebbie Date: 12 Jun 04 - 04:39 PM Not that I have that problem, but I have noted that it is like the brain, seeing a familiar letter or length of word or context, throws up words at random in the hope that one will be correct. Actually, sometimes the random puke is very funny. |

Subject: BS: Misread Threads From: Rapparee Date: 12 Jun 04 - 01:26 PM I checked, but can't find that this has been done before. Often when perusing the titles of threads, I misread them and come back with a "Huh? Can't be!" Upon rereading the title I recognize my mistake, which is probably caused by reading too fast and mentally filling in the blanks to my own expectations. Anyway, here's how I've read some of the current thread titles: Reagan rupture Dicks have accents Nine Head Norsemen Hotmale trouble Ronald Reagan -- Madly Pissed How I read the thread titles may (sadly) say a lot about my mental processes! |
