Sometimes a typo can make for an interesting mental picture. Photograph a scene that illustrates a typographical error come true.

Example: Someone said "tapes foot" instead of "taps foot". Some silver duct tape wrapped around a foot? Wish I had some examples to show, but I can't find any.

Lame idea, or one with potential?

I dunno, but if this thread goes anywhere, there may be a few more good ideas...
otherwise, I've killed another one.

in rural india spelling mistakes are very common thing.
I remember reading signboard on a beer shop that was claiming to sell 'chilled Beer',
the board said
- Child Beer.

do you know that japanese does not have 'la' sound, instead japanese says 'ra'. For example london will become rondon.

So while on valentines other parts of world a man tells woman - I love you.
Japanese man goes a step forward and tells the woman he loves - I rub you.

There is indeed a child beer here in Japan. Well, children's beer. Just a soft drink in a glass bottle. ;-Þ
