If irony was a flavour then it would probably taste something like wasabi ice-cream.

 (appears 1 times)

Trump Taj Mahal

I really, really wanted to find some great errors on "The Trumpster's" site, but was hampered by *shudder* flash files.

So his Casinos were next in the literary firing line.

"Fieplace" was a great find... "Facelift" is just me being petty. Use a hyphen.

Here are two of a possible 8 errors:

fieplace Suggestions: fie place, fie-place, fireplace, replace, Place
 (appears 1 times)

facelift Suggestions: face lift, face-lift, facility, forklift, facilitate
 (appears 1 times)

fieplace  facelift

AustralianSuper

Australian Super is the No.1 company in the Australian Top 500 Private Companies Index.

Numero Uno (I'll let that sink in for a moment).

Now, how would you feel having your money looked after by a company that spelt words like "information" wrong...?

Twice?

Drat that N key being so close to the M key.

Here are two of a possible 24 errors:

infornation Suggestions: information, intonation, incarnation, invention, inflation
 (appears 2 times)

resoponsibilities Suggestions: responsibilities, responsibility's, responsibility, irresponsibility's

Guardian

Newspapers are great. Not only do they provide you with a multitude of mis-spelled words, they also provide you with a high-quality of mis-spelled words.

Like disembowelled. Yeah. Disembowelled. Just rolls off the toungue tongue doesn't it?

Here are two of a possible 143 errors:

disembowelled Suggestions: disembowel led, disembowel-led, disemboweled, disembowels, disembowel
 (appears 2 times)

indiscetions Suggestions: indiscretions, inductions, indication's, induction's, insertions
 (appears 2 times)

disembowelled  indiscetions


*UPDATE*

It has been pointed out the spelling of "disembowelled" is actually acceptable spelling in UK English, although the more common version of the word only has one "l".

Here's a replacement error for you:

stepston Suggestions: steps ton, steps-ton, stepson, soapstone, steepest
 (appears 8 times)

stepston
