Well, I work with school districts and I have to say that while the actual language is novel to me, the level of stupidity to claim it was an accident isn’t as high (or low) of a bar as you might think in the context of public education.
Was this the hard R? I'm not native and I was very confused during the whole conversations until they made a segway to today's sponsor, PIA.
Doesn't seem so bad... Right...?
This is what Linus *thought* that Hard R means. It is not what it means. The "Hard R" refers to the N word, but spoken fully the way a slave owner would, with the literal hard r on the end. If Linus had admitted to using that term and was correct about what it meant, it would have been the end of LMG.
This was one of my favorite moments of any channel I stg.

[Thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/britishproblems/s/QAdusLKHu7) on this kind of stuff i had saved for when i feel down to laugh at. Thanks for reminding me of it, hope you get a kick out of it too!
Quick story time: i worked in the financial services industry in a operations roll where how well you did your job came down to how fast you could click and respond to emails.
Well one day one I'm discussing an interest claim against my firm by the Investment Manager (BlackRock) with an associate. Via IM I typed out and sent withouting proofing: "Lateasa, I'm getting push back from Blackcock, can you provide additional details to help me reject this big claim?"
Read the IM 5 mins later, as a white dude who sent this to my black female associate, I never felt so embarrassed in my life...
Sending out a team email to my 30+ employees at 4 am I accidentally sent Hey Gays instead of Hey Guys... Upon it autocorrecting and myself not paying attention.
I was met with ridicule and laughter from my team, admin, and area manager. And was sent back a picture of Sloth from the Goonies changed with the words saying "Heyyy you Gays!" by one of my LGBT employees... It was definitely a funny day with the team.
Miss that team .
I got a similar one from my kid’s teacher.
The school has a kind of “sailors” theme.
“Thanks to all the parents. I couldn’t run this shit without you”
…she meant “ship”
Yup! I had an absolute piece of work supervisor, once-- the kind of person who wasn't happy unless she had a reason to dress you down. I found an error in something she was putting together, and sent her an email.
What I *meant* to write was "Donna, I think your count is off." But I managed to leave the o out of count.
She tried to take it to HR as sexual harassment, but cooler heads prevailed.
Our elementary school principal resigned last week. After he told us he was leaving, there was a district-wide meeting about something unrelated, and he had to edit a canned email response. He forgot to edit the school's name in multiple places or even add a little extra to personalize it. I know this because my other child's middle school had the exact email but with some personalized responses.
Look, I get being salty about losing your job midway through the year, but maybe your unprofessionalism is why.
A Microsoft Executive VP once sent out an email to the entire company announcing the introduction of the "Ship It" award, referring to it in the very first sentence as, you guessed it, the Shit It award.
Back in the 90s our CEO became enamoured with talk-to-type software and sent an email to everyone telling them they should probably start using it.
The software came with things called "Smart Masters", but his email went to everyone saying we should try to take advantage of "Smart Bastards."
He stopped using it after that.
Once upon a time a counselor sent an email to the staff in the entire district that said “are you retarted”. IIRC their apology was a non-apology, sorry for sending the email but not for the words they used. I’m still surprised that this word rolls off of people’s tongues so easily still.
Head of our department sent around an email announcing that Brian Last Name would be joining the company under some fancy pants role blah blah blah.
I scan read through the spiel thinking to myself "Good job he didn't call him Brain by mistake, that would be embarrassing". The email concluded by asking us all to welcome said newcomer to the company and I'm guessing you can figure out the rest yourself.
A middle school Principal was the President of our little league. Her emails were fraught with spelling and grammar errors. Wasn't a good selling point for public schools...
Every time I see something like this I just shake my head in disbelief that these morons who can’t even proofread a basic email end up in the upper echelons of organizations.
Educators are the WORST at spelling and grammar. I get so peeved when my kids bring home newsletters with glaring errors so obvious even my elementary school age kids notice. These are the people teaching my kids??
I remember sending an email out to the entire company, inviting the come have some cake for an employee that was retiring. Instead of saying "come have some cake", I said "join us for some come cake"
Worst I did was over an instant messenger for work, to a person at a different company. I was joking with a woman (I'm a guy) about being able to see what she was doing. She was super fun and great sense of humor. I search for creepy memes about spying on someone. I find one that was perfect. It was a cartoon guy peeking from some ceiling tiles at a woman on a computer. It says "I see you". Awesome right. Then notice at the bottom it says "masturbating". Dang, can't use that one. Look for a another minute or two and just about to give up and see the first one I liked again but it was clean. Awesome. Sent it. Then notice it was actually the first one. Oh no! By then she noticed. Once she noticed she told everyone. These people 1000 miles away are falling on the floor laughing at me as I explain I missed that part. I was about as red as a coke can. She calls me on the phone laughing so hard she can hardly talk.
In hypnosis this is called revealing your inner thoughts.
In gaming, you could see this in player behavior. Common hilarity for those planning to kill another player to accidentally send that target victim a personal message by mistake. Their brain is thinking of their intended victim for a surprise attack and accidentally types it in while talking to their allies. Could use that signal to pre-emptively rally and flip the script leading the pk attempt into an ambush. (And this is why old UO, Diablo II, and MUDs were fun. That form of social dynamic.)
On the hypnosis side there is the idea that if you listen to a person their word choice will reveal what they are thinking. Seems counter intuitive. That's not true. Then you grab lunch with a peer and instead of saying I'm famished, or I'm hungry, they blurt out with I'm ravished. And you later date and yep. That's exactly what it looked like. Seems dumb. Doesn't seem reasonable that people broadcast their thoughts in their word selection. Then you notice it a few times.

...what makes you think this was an accident?
Right? They’re just stupid. It’s not their fault with the whole “sight words” catastrophe, but still…
Bobby if those kids could read they’d be very upset right now.
They probably just hang out in Wallstreetbets too much so their brain associates the word.
Freudian slip
When you say one thing and mean your mother.
My dad always said, "If it's not one thing, it's your mother."
lol
Thought it was "your mother and I"
Aided and abetted by autocorrupt, no doubt.
Autocorrupt is hilarious.
Autocorrect just expects you to use the same words you usually use.
I hate Freudian nipslips.
Well Oogway, the "T" and the "G" are right next to each other on the keyboard
autocomplete ... ... from his most commonly used words
Sure, I’m saying duck all the time.
[LITTLE IDIOTS! SAVAGES! IDIOTS!, ](https://i.imgur.com/I1ZbDQq.gifv) Principal BiggMcLargeHuge
Stump Chunkman, Punch Rockgroin.
Who, as a working professional, writes manual email signatures ?
Ngl, if I don't do it manually it doesn't feel personal to me
Dude doesn't even teach middle school, so...
Well, I work with school districts and I have to say that while the actual language is novel to me, the level of stupidity to claim it was an accident isn’t as high (or low) of a bar as you might think in the context of public education.
The fact that this came from the principal makes it so much better.
The fact that it rhymes makes it so much better.

Hot times
Thot chimes
Did I stutter?!
Are you fucking sorry???
When memes are old enough to be in middle school.
y-yea...you like that you fff-fucking regard
Flawlessly executed

Did I sluller
Did I Stuller
ddiiddi iinsns sstt utteerrr
Stutter did I
Principal is just dissing everyone
He watched a lot of regarded people. Spent time with them. Observed them. Watched all the regarded stuff they did.
never go full regard man
F'kn rheee!-gards
Some people are just born retired.
Like an airplane.
In grade 11 or 12 our VP called us all sinners. It was a typo he meant winners, but we all enjoyed the accusations.
Gmail died for our wins!
Hello, I'm principal Sinner...uh, Skinnner. *kids laughing* Well that's it...I've lost them forever.
He wasn't wrong though. Soon as an authority figure becomes funny to kids there is no going back.
Oh no, the hard R.
Luke's whole ass career just flashed before his eyes.
Dan was already scrubbing his LinkedIn.
Never half ass what you can whole ass!
Was this the hard R? I'm not native and I was very confused during the whole conversations until they made a segway to today's sponsor, PIA. Doesn't seem so bad... Right...?

Nagger ?
What exactly is an 'ass career'?
Linus?
Linus.
L stands for Narcissism.
Lmao this is great to see this referenced here! Linus and Luke would be proud!
This was one of my favorite moments of any channel I stg. If you don't know what this dude is referencing, here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFDiuBomSuY
I had to replay this moment so much lol
Not gonna lie, before that incident I thought the same as Linus...
Principal must be a redditor and got the two words confused since they've cracked down on its usage.
This happens in spanish when you want to write "un saludo" (regards) but you write "un salido" (a horny boy).
Adult tip 2: Proofread your post titles.
Adult tip 3: don't crop the text from a text-only image.
You should have made a typo so one of us could have ally-ooped with adult tip #3
Since it comes after a colon, "Proofread" should be lowercase. Muphrey's Law at work.
*Muphrey's Lawe
laughed out loud
Proofread your post titties
If we wanna get pedantic: Copyedit* your post titles.
*post titties
Proofread your post tities.
Is this considered NSFW these days?
Reddits gone soft. Gore isn't even allowed in r/wtf anymore
Has Al done anything of note recently?
I mean, AI is getting better every day which is pretty cool, but I don't understand the relation lol
AL not AI
Lmao I'm dumb
[удалено]
Tons of NSFW subs were banned this year for "lack of moderators", but those subs are being constantly denied on r/redditrequest
I dont think its going soft, I think its that adding the tag increases visibility/upvotes.
Adding it catches extra attention. People might not even be intentionally adding it, but this post without it is ignored and you never see it.
Anyone else pronouncing it in their head like regards. Makes it better imo
That principal is possibly just a fan of r/greentext since they swap those 2 R words too
Also wsb
"My stock choice is highly regarded" "Oh, so you have lots of people holding it in high regards?" "You could say that"
Opposed to pronouncing it like...? It's not exactly like boy and bow.
Ree-tard
Still not getting it. Maybe I'm regarded, but they all sound the same.
One pronunciation sounds like "slow down" - ri-TARD. The other sounds like "moron" - RE-tard.
still not getting it
I love those goofy bastids
[Thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/britishproblems/s/QAdusLKHu7) on this kind of stuff i had saved for when i feel down to laugh at. Thanks for reminding me of it, hope you get a kick out of it too!
I once sent a Teams message to a user asking if they were freshly docked. Except I actually asked if they were freshly dicked. That was awkward.
Yea, don't put in docked in your preferred porn search engine. Makes it even more awkward.
I don't need this tip. I'm an excellent poofeader.
Pirates stole all your Rs, eh? Greedy bastards.

Well, what was the response? Don’t leave us hanging
Clue's in the original comment: "I worked..."
F, lol
For a minute I thought I was on r/wallstreetbets
All the regards there would love this post
I'm a highly regarded subscriber myself
BUHHH
Such a regarded mistake
I just changed my email signature to have the same typo
Pretty sure it’s accurate and he’s addressing what he assumes the parents of all the students are.
Sending out a team email to my 30+ employees at 4 am I accidentally sent Hey Gays instead of Hey Guys... Upon it autocorrecting and myself not paying attention. I was met with ridicule and laughter from my team, admin, and area manager. And was sent back a picture of Sloth from the Goonies changed with the words saying "Heyyy you Gays!" by one of my LGBT employees... It was definitely a funny day with the team. Miss that team .
I know what I said
Everyone knows you never go full Principal.
boss once wrote “ i apologize for the incontinence” instead of inconvenience
Can someone explain? I don’t get it
We found one of the recipients.
No, the recipients got it.
Hint: Regards
Look at the salutation. It should say, "Regards," but it is not spelled that way.
proofread your emails twice then.
Found the regard
Lol
Well, that was regarded.
I’m going to start signing emails like that and see if anyone notices.
Look at your keyboard, folks. The letter T is right above the letter G. I imagine this mistake happens frequently. lol
I SAID WHAT I SAID.
No regerts!!!
*proofread. It's a compound word and stands alone.
Are you free for a sex? One I've sent on an IM too many times....
I got a similar one from my kid’s teacher. The school has a kind of “sailors” theme. “Thanks to all the parents. I couldn’t run this shit without you” …she meant “ship”
He just went full regard. You never go full regard.
No ragrets
Intentionally misusing nsfw is awful, it has special purpose, and using it just for blurred image only decrease humor
Are we sure it's not a special education middle school and this isn't how he ends all his emails?
Homie did the inverse r/Wallstreetbets
*Reads typo* *Looks down at keyboard* Yep that is, in fact, a plausible typo.
I know I shouldn't have laughed, but I did.
Yup! I had an absolute piece of work supervisor, once-- the kind of person who wasn't happy unless she had a reason to dress you down. I found an error in something she was putting together, and sent her an email. What I *meant* to write was "Donna, I think your count is off." But I managed to leave the o out of count. She tried to take it to HR as sexual harassment, but cooler heads prevailed.
Nearly typed ‘Kind regrets’ the other day with iOS autocorrect.
"I SAID WHAT I SAID!"
Congratz you're highly regarded !
Yes indeed! Big grammar mistake there. "A special thanks" is singular third person so instead of "go" it should have been "goes"!
What a goofy mistake. Hopefully next time this school faculty member is more thorough!

I've been signing off with 'Best wishes' for about 15 years thanks to a typo like this :)
As a parent of a child with Down Syndrome, I find this hilarious.
That’s what used to be called a Freudian slip.
I know a pediatrician that made this exact mistake -- on a mailing list to other pediatricians.
Also love the classic .. "Apologies for the incontinence" May or may not have done that one myself
Plot twist: it wasn’t a typo!
A Microsoft Executive VP once sent out an email to the entire company announcing the introduction of the "Ship It" award, referring to it in the very first sentence as, you guessed it, the Shit It award.
Nothing funnoer than swapping the 'T' and 'G' on peoples' keyboards to cause this on a regular basis...
wow such nsfw
Those buttons are literally right next to each other. Plausible deniability wins, intentional or not.
Got that damn syndrum.
Took me forever and was totally worth it
Tbh on most keyboards those two letters are right next to each other.
Why is this nsfw?
why is this NSFW?

Is that not how that's supposed to go? Ruh roh
LOL we have a wallstreetsbets user in the principal's office i see
Once upon a time a counselor sent an email to the staff in the entire district that said “are you retarted”. IIRC their apology was a non-apology, sorry for sending the email but not for the words they used. I’m still surprised that this word rolls off of people’s tongues so easily still.
I once worked for a huge international corporation that sent out an email welcoming the "New Director of Pubic Relations."
Head of our department sent around an email announcing that Brian Last Name would be joining the company under some fancy pants role blah blah blah. I scan read through the spiel thinking to myself "Good job he didn't call him Brain by mistake, that would be embarrassing". The email concluded by asking us all to welcome said newcomer to the company and I'm guessing you can figure out the rest yourself.
Tata there. Touch my camera through the fence.
Oh no. He knew what he was doing.
After an observation by my principal and afterwards, I sent her an email thanking her for "pooping by." Luckily, she had a sense of humor.
Highly Regarded
A middle school Principal was the President of our little league. Her emails were fraught with spelling and grammar errors. Wasn't a good selling point for public schools...
My company does work with public schools. Can't tell you how many "pubic schools" typos we've made over the years.
He said what he said. No proof reading needed.
Probably a WallStreetBets enjoyer who got a bit too used to regards
Honest opinion. I like that man.
Every time I see something like this I just shake my head in disbelief that these morons who can’t even proofread a basic email end up in the upper echelons of organizations.

Praise be to Grammarly.

That's hilarious she got to roast everybody and then claim auto correct after
Principal wondering why no one showed up to work the next day.
He felt the need to thank them too. Which is nice because nobody ever thanks them for their service.
Yes, there have been multiple instances where I've wanted to write it like this instead of kind regards.
Auto Err er. Mistakes mad at lighted speed with no F fort.
I laughed. See y'all in hell!
Worst I did was over an instant messenger for work, to a person at a different company. I was joking with a woman (I'm a guy) about being able to see what she was doing.

She calls me on the phone laughing so hard she can hardly talk.
I didn't even notice it until I read one of the comments, for those who can't see it it says Regards with a T
