Kaapo Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Once a BBO commentator was commentating on a ladies match. At a late point of a certain board's play, he probably meant to say something like this: "She has a complete count." Unfortunately the last word was missing one important letter...

pclayton Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I was working on a new shopping center project about 7 years ago. I sent out an email to about 300 people whom I wanted to attend a Public Hearing. Public had a letter missing. No prizes for guessing which one.

Al_U_Card Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 There is also the classic self-defeating signage instruction during an election: No. 1Vote So and So. Perhaps using the # would have been preferable to describe the candidate's status? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
