Typos in Text Messgaes

You guessed it–based on a true story. Except that it was me making the typo, and the person picking (not licking) me up for lunch was my co-worker Paul. Now that was just embarrassing.

    Oops. Hopefully Paul didn’t take it the wrong way.

    Hopefully it will turn out to be a pretty awesome day! I would reply “spank you”.

    Here’s hoping it’s not a typo.

    I was at work texting to my fiancee and my female co-worker (we’re really just cool friends) and I received a steamy text from my wife. I must have gotten distracted, because I inadvertently replied back to my coworker with something sultry meant for my spouse. I didn’t realize until she rushed into my office with that gleam in her eye and my wife’s texting me back about why did I ignore her text. I had a lotta ’splaining to do. :)

    My fiancee became my wife, by the way. I’m not a Lothario.

    Although I do play one on tv.

  5. Matt says:

    This one was great!

  6. Great one! If I had a nickel for everytime I got licked up for lunch, I’d still be broke!

    DD.

  7. But what’s HE going to eat? *wink, wink,nudge, nudge*

  8. John Norton says:

    Thanks everybody! Fortunately there was no licking going on between myself and Paul. That’s a freakin’ great story, George. Have you done a comic based on that yet? Because I certainly smell a great one. And nice to see you, Matt and DD! Also, Lonnie, that story is strictly for my alternate XXX George strip, also called “the notebook in the dresser in my spare bedroom.”

    Hehe! I’m glad to see I’m not the only one with fat fingers… well not really fat, just lacking in grace and agility. Luckily I haven’t accidentally threatened to lick anyone, yet.

    reminds me of another typo, flatmate was having dinner party, and sent the message “Please bring a slave” (slave comes up before plate). the funnier was he noticed it, and sent message number 2, “And by slave I mean slave” we did have 2 people show up with slaves….

  11. John Norton says:

    Haahahah, “And by slave I mean slave.” That’s so awesome. Yeah lilly, I have surprisingly thin fingers (compared to the rest of me, at least) but try typing on an iPhone without making any typos!

    Two best things in telecommunication are typos in text messages, and test messages sent to the wrong people. My friend will forever been known by me as “honey” thanks to that ;)

    with touch-screen phones the typoes are even worse, I don’t care what the commercials show you. with my phone I miss letters more than anything else.

    Anyway I lol’ed. Also I’m lol-ing at the 5 million comments. Oh well. Hi all of you commenters!!

  14. Jim says:

    Ha, nice. I never get typos like that.

  15. cbabin says:

    Well if you are ever being “liked” up for lunch, may I suggest ordering the tossed salad? It’s pretty tasty!

  16. cbabin says:

    “Liked” up or “Licked” up … just order the damn tossed salad! lol.

  17. John Norton says:

    With jelly or syrup?!

    I hear you, Tbowl. I’m pretty stoked about all the commenters. I’m sure there’ll be even more when they all learn about the free sketch I’ll be giving away monthly ;)
