Book World

Part of working in the Book industry is typos. They happen and that’s just a fact of life. However, every now and then there is a typo that is so funny you have to share it.

I’m working on a Psychology text, and the author was trying to say that he was torn over an issue. Here is the text EXACTLY as it appears in the unedited copy:

I felt tom, and that was rough.

I almost died with laughter. And even funnier is the proofreaders comment in the margin:

(arrow after o) something missing?

Aaaah hilarity
