Yeah, everybody makes typos including me, but this particular typo has an unvoluntarily funny side (for a German):

Spiegel is 'mirror'
Speigel is 'spit-jelly'

And then add to that the content of the post in which a poster complains about the magazine 'Spit-jelly' publishing libel. That's why I did laugh.

I love sense altering typos, like when Bobert spells Israel Isreal. The best I ever read at Mudcat was when someone spelled the Austrian chancellor 'Schussel' instead of 'Schüssel' making him 'dimwit' instead of 'bowl'.
