    I looked at a sign in a produce section and thought it said "He is already here." The sign said nothing like that.

    This eventually lead to me thinking Wall-Nut was Lord English.

    Looked at "Heir Conditioning" and thought it said "Heir Crossdressing".

    Whenever I see a Fuddruckers, I always think that it either says Fuddfuckers or Ruddfuckers.

    Also I was talking with some guy the other day who had the screen name 'anzalone', and I kept reading it as 'analzone'.

    Re: "I looked at [x] and thought it said..."

    I was writing a note for my friend (I was bored in class, okay) and while re-reading over my own handwriting I thought that I wrote the word "prom" when I actually wrote "from."

    I saw "C02, H20" as "OH NO" just the other day. Yeah, I was standing about five feet away from the book I saw it in, but still.

    I also saw something on a package recieved in the mail as "ASSES WHISPERING LEGO GUN".
    The packaging was thrown away, though, and I never got to see what it actually said.

    Re: "I looked at [x] and thought it said..."

    I was reading a list of movies and I saw "Boys don't cry" and read it as "Dean will die." That's really far off from what it said but that's what I get for quickly scanning the titles.

    hee hee! I misread things all the dang time!

    Just a few minutes ago I read "LOWFAT Cottage Cheese" on a container and thought it said "LOWAS Cottage Cheese."

    Re: "I looked at [x] and thought it said..."

    I have both said "orgasms" instead of "organisms"... and "He was driving erotically."

    Only the first case was misreading, but the second deserves a mention.

    I read "lips" as "lisps".
    THE SOLLUX DISEASE!

    I've also read things as odd, rather inappropriate things. Though I can't think of any examples at the moment.

    I always read it as "GIVE CHIRAL NIGHT MASSAGING".

    My dad plays Fallout: New Vegas. Once while he was playing, I read "Programmer's Digest" as "Prickly Poop's Digest".

    My science teacher has a small illustrated book with personified science terms in it. The one for a black hole is a ninja, and it says that he takes down the Light Crew with his awesome ninja skills. I read "Light Crew" as "Midnight Crew" when I first saw it though. ^-^"

    Re: "I looked at [x] and thought it said..."

    I was in VS and it had a gift stand for the line called "Sexy Little Things". I thought it said "Sexy Little Girls" and did a whiplash-inducing double-take. Thankfully, my friend there with me thought the exact same thing and we had a good laugh about it.
    ...and that's how I saved Christmas.

    Re: "I looked at [x] and thought it said..."

    I was playing PvZ yesterday.

    "Choose your plants" -> Something about Scribblenauts
    "Generates additional sun" -> "Generates additional Karkat" (To which my brother responded "But I don't want any additional Karkats!")

    Also, in Pokemon White, I keep reading "Karrablast" as "Karkat".

    The first time I saw a Wendy's sign, I read it as "Wangy". ...Yeah.

    Same here. That was not the best G to use.

    I saw a sign for Highwood Drive today, but I thought it said Highblood Drive.


    I read Homestuck too much.

    The first time I saw the word "Nepeta", I read it as Neopets... Go figure, I guess?

    Today saw a streetsign that said "Prospect Drive" which I misread as "Prospit Drive".
