What do you call a Freudian Slip, if it happens when you’re reading. A Freudian Shuffle? Because I don’t have the time or the energy to do better at this point, here are two recent textual slips/shuffles that I’ve made of late. I promise I’ll be back with real content at some point.
I was writing a paper about depression, but kept writing oppression instead.
Just now, I was reading a blog that mentioned “Delay” (as in the former house majority leader) which I totally read as “Delany,” as in Samuel R. Speaking of which, I need to add Delany material to my Amazon Wish-list (which I’m not going to link to here out of taste, but you can feel free to find it on your own.)
Cheers, Sam
delay as in procrastinate, or the criminal on capitol hill?

As in the former house majority leader… sorry, I’ll fix that
