This is pre-vacay hustle week, so for your amusement, I am re-posting one of my Blooper Blogs with a few new additions. One field of study in education must be in hibernation, my friends – spelling! But how much fun would we have if we couldn’t occasionally laugh at some of these ridiculous gaffes from the MLS and the local real estate ads? Please enjoy:
Where the Bodies Lie…
“Lvg newly planted” (RIP – just like your listing.)
"Please do not test me" (If I did, you'd get an 'F.')
“Corn early” (Agricultural update provided by Old MacDonald..)
“Beautiful craftmanshit” (So it's a pile of crap like your writing skills?)
Decomposed and Deconstructed
“Detales from a long bye gone era (Methinks you'll soon be bye-bye and long gone.)
“Was once a boaring house” (Well someone is rolling in pig s--t.)
“This will put a smell on your buyer’s face” (So would a mackerel hat.)
“Pride of Owdership” (This stinks more than the mackerel hat.)
“A cat above” (A KIA mouse below.)
In Requiem
“This will sail fast” (Have you looked into bolting?)
“At end of cure” (That's what I always say after my 3rd martini. Then I order another.)
“Drop-don stairway” (I guess that explains why Don is now wandering about in traffic.)
“Drawing for free oPad” (These days I'd prefer a pPad.)
My Faves
"New pint" (That's what I say after every Guinness.)
“Two many changes to describe” (Let me help: 1. Caitlyn Jenner before 2. Caitlyn Jenner after.)
"Itch on hold" (I'm happy to hear that the antibiotics finally kicked in.)
“Swing fur kids” (Why swing the little buggers when you can simply shave ‘em?)
That’s it for this week, folks. Remember: Spell and Sell!
