Heh, I first heard of "Best Retards" from Al Lowe of Leisure Suit Larry fame. You actually got one in the wild! BTW, Matt, have you ever had someone offended because of the word "mockup"? It's happened to me and neither of us were pleased.

This is exactly why I use the "Undo Send" feature in GMail Labs. Gives you that crucial ten seconds after you click Send to realize that you just called all your recipients retards.

you should send that to makeuseof, they have other similar email typo's
We had a similar story at work. A customer wrote to the CEO complaining that we reassigned a programmer to another project and demanded the original programmer be returned to his project. The CEO had a VP write back to tell the customer that we were sympathetic to their concerns, blah, blah, and that the original programmer would be put back on the customer's project. The last sentence was to read "... and I know you'll be pleased to hear that Don will now be assigned to complete your project." Unfortunately, there was a typo. The sentence which went out actually said "... and I know you'll be pleased to hear that Don will not be assigned to complete your project." It did not make the customer happy.

Hilarious. It's even better that it's placed at such a point in the email that you can hear it, muttered, like an afterthought. Awesome.
That would be embarrassing when you realized you misspelled something in an e-mail you already sent. Was there any aftermath? You amuse me so much. ^_^

lol, I'm a lil dyslexic between c and s which has caused problems... I burnt a dick for you, it's in the post.
I worked for a BIG Japanese company. We had a change of management at the very top in Japan, and being "One of the people" he sent a message to all employees globally. The typo is in the first line - see if you can spot it. "Hi all you gays," ----edit for length---- .... he's gone now, but I confess I peed a little when I read THAT one..... Mark
