HELP!!! Typo makes word very inappropriate :(

<p>I’m applying to a summer program and we have to write a short story. I had one character say “ditto” and accidentally put “dildo”. I know it’s a ridiculous typo that looks nothing like the original word. IDK what I was thinking.</p>

<p>How do I call and say “change didlo to ditto?”. HELP!!!</p>

<p>HAHAHAHAHA i have no idea but that’s pretty funny but awkward to explain.</p>

<p>that sucks</p>

<p>LMAO!!!
umm… I wouldn’t draw anymore attention to it.</p>

<p>HAHAHAHA OMG. It’s okay. Don’t worry about it…</p>

<p>LMAO that is hilarious!!!</p>

<p>hahahaha thats soo funny!</p>

<p>Let it go–do not call them or bring more attention to it. I’m sure they realize that it’s a typo (after having a good laugh). If anything, it’ll make your story stand out among the rest.</p>

<p>AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA. THAT’S THE BEST THING I’VE READ ALL DAY.</p>

<p>i’m really, really sorry though. seriously. i hope it goes well for you</p>

<p>HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHa. Sorry I LOLed for reals.</p>

<p>I think this might make your essay stand out. They will realize its a typo and yeah, just relax. LOLOLOL you’re awesome.</p>

<p>Lol…</p>

<p>hehehehe, that’s just hilarious. </p>

<p>I wouldn’t contact them about, even though I don’t really think it’d hurt. I think they’ll understand, and probably laugh their heads off.</p>

<p>lol, this reminds me of that reaaaally old thread about the girl who typed ‘clam farting’ as her significant extracurricular on her Yale application! If it’s any consolation, she was accepted. :)</p>

<p>yes^ lol, but i think this one is more hilarious, LMAO. HAHA!</p>

<p>Omg…I can imagine someone there reading it…</p>

<p>*Reads…LaaLaa…Dildo…Laalaa…WAIT WHAT??? DILDO?"</p>

<p>I was worried some would think I was a ■■■■■ or something.</p>

<p>I’m still freaking out about it, but to the person who said it may make my application stick out… in a good way or bad way???</p>

<p>could you at least give us some context for the instance, like post the sentence that it is in?</p>

<p>It could be bad if it actually fits in with what you are saying.</p>

<p>Well this girl was talking and she said “I’m so tired, how are you feeling?” and the other girl who always says like says, “like dildo”. So she’s saying she feels like a dildo. That’s why I’m freaking out!</p>

<p>I couldn’t write anything that funny if I tried.</p>

<p>WOW- what were u thinking? :wink: anyway, thats really funny!!!</p>

<p>The characters are far apart on the keyboard, I wonder if it was a typo after all :D</p>
