public relations: "House on ben" - Hilarious MLS Bloopers
- 01/25/18 04:59 PM
Welcome to the World of Bloopers 2018, friends. Spelling and grammar still seems to be a challenge to many...with some hilarious results. Thanks to all of you who contributed these great gaffes from the MLS and local ads:
A Pig in A Poke
"House on downslop" (This must be a pigsty.)
"Soda in den not included" (Then how about a martini in the living room?)
"Seller retains water rites" (Hence the baptismal font on the front porch.)
"First house on ben in road" (I think Ben may have a good lawsuit.)
"Yard equipment strays" (Try turning off the motor on the lawn mower.)
Just for Kicks

- 07/07/17 12:46 PM
It’s Blooper day once again, my friends, so I am re-posting a past blooper blog by request. There were enough typo casualties to require serious triage, and of course, I was happy to help. Please enjoy:
The Oozy“Nice wounded area” (The area where that arrow impaled your skull?)
“Calf after 7 pm.” (Beef slider Happy Hour.)
“Natural wildlife coroner” (Move to LA - we autopsy your roadkill.)
“Scream setting” (Sign posted outside the IRS.)
“Call if still.” (It seems you met my last date.)
The Schmoozy“No show Thirsty” (I agree - always chug a six-pack before dealing with the public.)
“Maturd trees” (Well I guess we know what they used for fertilizer.)

Ah, yes – it’s Blooper Day again, my friends. One of my followers asked me to re-post this blog, so I am here to accommodate. I have so much fun collecting MLS gaffes from all over the U.S., it should be illegal. Check out these real estate listing and advertising bloopers if you want to laugh until you cry:
Waterlogged"New sob just arrived" (Oh, did the seller hit you upside your head with a dictionary?)
“Overlooks the rezervwa” (Is this a body of water in Poland?)

It’s Blooper Day, friends, so if you want a few hearty laughs, check out these MLS and advertising comments that self-detonated. Amongst these are some of my old favorites, as well as the newest in Blooper Madness. As proper spelling becomes more and more a thing of the past, the gaffes just keep coming:
Incoming!“Seller wood carry” (Apparently the seller is a lumberjack.)
“Medi room with theater seating” (How do you get the popcorn through the IV?)
“No deal with lawyers” (Proudly offered by Sue-mi Assnow.)

Alert the media, as out of the mist appears the masked Blooper Blogger! Hey friends, I'm back with a list that was too good not to write up. Thanks to Jane Peters of Los Angeles, Portland's own Carla Muss-Jacobs, and Juli Vosmik of Scottsdale for their hilarious contributions: Mass Confusion "Has curve appeal" (Is this a house or a Kardashian?) "A Liz Pendants has been filed" (Who knew you could file a lien on someone's jewelry?) "Home has been remolded" (So has your cerebral cortex.)

public relations: HILARIOUS HOLIDAY MLS BLOOPERS
- 12/09/14 09:24 AM
Well, folks, by all indications, the holiday partying has started. The MLS was full of bloopers this last week, and it seems we have more than a few tipsy agents running loose in the streets. Here are some chuckles as my gift to you for the holidays:
Yule Tid-Bits
"Really sweat deal" (Oh, I thought the wet circles under your arm pits were a fashion statement.)
"Holiday rice reduction" (So I can't stuff my turkey with beans-n-rice burritos this year?)
"This will impact your buyers." (One of my burritos will alleviate that problem fast.)

- 11/10/14 09:04 AM
Welcome back to the Blooper Blog, friends! I'm a firm believer that we should laugh at ourselves now...because it's harder to laugh once they strap you into a strait jacket. These MLS goofs underscore the fact that real estate can sometimes drive agents bonkers. Thanks to Jane Peters for her sharp eye and great contributions.
DUH! "Lot with curve appeal" (This must be the corner of Melon Lane and Tuchus Terrace.)
“New Constriction needs finishes” (Old intestine needs fiber.)
“Hurry – this will be sod soon.” (So will my grandma, but it’s rude to rush people. )

The Blooper Blog is back, my friends. Here are some old favorites mixed in with this week's rash of hilarious MLS and real estate advertising gaffes. Please enjoy:
Killer deals
“Appliances being de livered” (If you want something de-livered, call Hannibal Lecter.)
“Best price per spare foot” (I’m sure Lecter would be happy to remove that sucker for you.)
“This is a kikker deal!” (This must be the listing agent who has the spare foot.)

It's Blooper Blog Friday, so hang onto your hats, my friends. The MLS and the local real estate ads were ripe for the pluckin. Carla Muss-Jacobs of Portland and Patrick Martin and Jane Peters of L.A. made some witty and wild contributions. You may choke on a few of these unwitting witticisms:
Need a Prescription? "Hot colons" (Another dinner at Pepe's Mexican Fire Pit, eh?)
"Full service with many aunties" (Is "aunties" code for "hookers"?)
"Two units for smell - probate" (That explains the smell...)

- 08/07/14 05:17 AM
Hi Friends - Recently I have had a number of requests for my "Wino Post." (Thank you, dear readers!) So here it is, back by popular demand.
The MLS and the L.A. Times Real Estate pages should be on Oprah's Reading List. Seriously. There are so many typos and outrageous remarks in the MLS that it makes for great leisure reading. The newspaper ads certainly add to the merriment. I love houses with features such as a "slimming pool" or a "crook's kitchen," especially if those features are in a "Post and Bean" house. And what could be more entertaining than … (27 comments)

- 07/19/14 11:09 AM
It's the end of another week and the Blooper Blog is back, my friends. There were some amazing gaffes on the MLS and in real estate advertising this week. It seems the need for truncated speech in social media outlets is relegating proper grammar to the past.
Kudos to Weird Al Yankovic for the release of his new song, "Word Crimes." It is a parody of Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" and hilariously expresses the need for good grammar and spelling - a reminder these agents could use! Please enjoy:

It's time for Blooper fun, my friends. The MLS and advertising goofs this past week continue to provide a source of head-scratching - as well as some laugh-out-loud humor. Thanks to Myrl Jeffcoat of Sacramento and Jane Peters of Los Angeles for their great finds. Check out these memorable gaffes:
Hanky "Great wall space for arf" (Do you stick the dogs to the wall with Velcro?)

I'm b-a-a-ack. Yes, it's Blooper Day again, and goofs were everywhere this past week. Reading the MLS was like reading a comic book, and the local real estate ads were even more, uh, "creative." I also received some very funny submissions from my sharp-eyed colleagues. Thanks to Jan Pastras, Jane Peters and Patrick Martin, all of L.A., for their help with all the fun. Please enjoy:
Bones "Condo has food bones" (Offered by Carnivore Condos - Motto: "We kill it, we eat it, and then we sell it.")

The Blooper Scooper is back, folks, and what a hilarious week it was! The MLS and local real estate ads were rife with goofs. Thanks to Jane Peters and Patrick Martin from Los Angeles for their side-splitting contributions. Read 'em and weep:
All-tered State "New copboards thruout" (Let me guess - they can store a lot of donuts?)
"Access to amnesties -need membership" (Aerial leaflets dropped by mystery red-white-and-blue planes seen flying over Moscow.)

It’s time for the Blooper Reel, folks, and this week’s bloopers did not disappoint. Every week I receive contributions from all over the U.S. and Canada. These include hilarious gaffes from MLS sites as well as from real estate ads. Thanks to Patty Da Silva from Davie, Florida and Patrick Martin of L.A. for some whoppers.

It’s Blooper Day, my friends – and some of this week’s real estate advertising and MLS gaffes are as baffling as Richard Sherman’s post-game rant. Let these be a lesson as to why one shouldn’t type during a play-off kegger. Thanks to Jane Peters and Patrick Martin, both from L.A., for their great contributions. Please enjoy:
Fish Sticks “Leave card for filet” (Oh, is that a fish? I just thought you were just happy to see me.)

Welcome to this week’s edition of “Dazed and Confused." I am not sure how any of this hilarious ad copy will help sell the properties being marketed. Nevertheless, these bloopers do provide some giggles, so please enjoy:
Well, of course! “New bullit house” (Just another day in Bonnie and Clyde’s ’hood…)
“Please request paperwok” (Not unless a fire extinguisher comes with it…)
“Nicest house aground” (Real Estate ad in The Shipwreck Times.)
“High Def TB included” (That explains the X-Ray machine in the driveway.)
