Just because the items in these classified ads are free doesn’t mean they’re worth it:
Free: Piano with matching bench seat, very good condition, all keys work probably
Free: 5 kitchen drawers, all matching naughty pine fronts
Free: Vain Screening
Free: rent in exchange for elderly woman

We all make mistakes. Some are just more public than others, like these real newspaper typos:
“Here the bridal couple stood, facing the floral setting, and exchanged cows.”
“It took many rabbits many years to write the Talmud.”
“Mrs. ____ fell down stairs at her home this morning, breaking her myhodudududududududosy, and suffered painful injuries.”
“A headline in an item in the Feb. 15th edition incorrectly stated ‘Stolen Groceries.’ It should have read: ‘Homicide.’”

It’s tough enough selling a home nowadays. Don’t make the mistakes that turned off these readers on the City Room blog of The New York Times:
"It was a good house, well-maintained. But the bed with the person in it was off-putting."
"The family dog, long departed, was stuffed and standing next to the fireplace. RIP Sparky."
"The main distraction was dirt. Although there was the tiny child who proudly showed us the refrigerator full of ‘Daddy’s beer’ just outside an upstairs bedroom."

A long line leading to the ladies’ room greeted my friend’s wife. Since desperate times call for desperate measures, my friend took her into the empty men’s room, then stood guard.
When she exited a few minutes later, a man waiting his turn called out,
“I hope you remembered to put up the toilet seat.”
