The Blooper Scooper - Hilarious MLS Gaffes!

By
Real Estate Agent with Sotheby's International Realty BRE # 01362887

 

Hey friends, it's time for the Blooper Blog again. I accumulated some whoppers during my hiatus, as apparently carelessness remains rampant. On the other hand, perhaps we can attribute the gaffes to the fact that it's margarita season. (Oh, wait, maybe that's just at my house.) Here they are for your enjoyment:

 

Wasted?

 

"Two stoned house"  (Too stoned agent.)

 

"New piles in kitchen" (New dog needs potty training)

 

"Please put on boots before entering" (Apparently the dog is a Great Dane.)

 

"Modern flares throughout" (Nice touch if you want a home visible from the International Space Station.)

 

"Desiner tuchus" (The designer is not the only tuchus, pal...)

 

Pasted?

 

"Avoid glue spots when woking" (If I were you, I'd rethink your dream of becoming a chef.)

 

"View of Hollywood sin" (Ad on the side of a  Los Angeles TMZ tour bus?)

 

"Avoid areas with police tape" (This is L.A. - that's about as likely as avoiding the Kardashians.)

 

"Korean tile in kitchen" (Thank you, Kim Jong-un.)

"For directions, follow mao" (Are you planning a real estate revolution, comrade?)

 

"Fragrant with jazman" (Have you tried hosing him down and spraying him with Right Guard?)

 

Haste-ed?     

 

"Built-in express machine" (Uh, I believed that's called a "breast pump.")

 

"Drop by if your hungary" (Stay home if you're North Korea.)

 

"Planes for addition included" (This is what happens when you listen to the voices in your head telling you you're Richard Branson.)

 

"Big reduction on model" (I suggest you feed her a sandwich.)

 

"This one will fly" (That's what Amelia Earhart said...)

 

Basted!

 

"You will be balled for inspection." (Apparently this inspector is from Cell Block 3.)

 

"New rump pump installed" (That's called a colonic, and something tells me you're that inspector from Cell Block 3...)

 

That's it for this week, folks. Remember: Spell well and Sell!

My favorite typo was from an insurance policy solicitation that read "Send no money. You will be killed later".

I have to say, I have been in a few kitchens with piles of, well... of - let's just say a few piles.  Boots would have been a good idea.

Good stuff, and fun, as always Gwen.

Gwen, I wonder if the house with the rump pump is being sold by a proctologist?

Gwen - You've done it again! I know that any time I need some laughter in my day, all I have to do is come here and read a couple of your blooper posts - they never fail me. 

Now... if I could just figure out the flares...

Marte, I couldn't make sense of the flares either.  Any ideas, anyone?
