Does It Say “Donald Thump” On His Long-Form Birth Certificate?

An amusing typo from an AP article about Republican candidates angling for Donald Trump’s endorsement:

I’m not entirely sure why I find this so funny . . . . There’s something about Trump that just seems to fit with a nickname like “Thump.” Maybe it’s “thump . . . the Donald’s hairpiece falls to the floor” or “thump goes the Donald’s fist on the conference table.” Even better: “thump: the sound of the Donald’s Nielsen ratings hitting the ground.”

Plus, this is the headline:

Sorry, but all I see here is “Republican candidates seek tramp stamp of approval.” Probably not what Sarah “Abstinence Worked So Well for My Daughter” Palin had in mind.

Word[s]count – Hear Ye, Hear Ye

This, from a newspaper that just ran an opinion piece on the proliferation of typos:

I’d wager that it will take less than a “hear” for someone at the Times to catch this. Of course, the day that Virginia Heffernan’s op-ed was published, a Room for Debate essay accused Texas of “steeling” jobs from other states. Nice.
