LMAO oh my gosh, I love this thread.
One of my journalism professors use to tell the class stories about similar incidents. The only thing is, he'd take a red pen to it and give them a grade.
That's what I'm afraid of--that the person thinks that's how abomination is really spelled!
Still doesn't quite beat "swats sticker", but it's up there.
I'm dying laughing here. I hadn't seen "swats sticker."

I think the poster was referencing that Brad Pitt movie about the Nazis at the time.
The worst part is that he apparently is not the only one--if you Google swats sticker as an exact phrase, you'll get a bunch of examples of people who wrote that when they meant swastika.
Here's one I've seen many times in C-D threads. Apparenty for emphasis, someone will follow a list of things in a sentence with, "etc., etc." Just one "etc." will do, folks!
Another one which I may have mentioned here several months ago still cracks me up when I think about it. The earlier post about "Cavalry Baptist Church" brought this to mind. One day, in the course of my job, I was reading a patient's medical chart. The intake questionnaire had this written in the space for the patient's religion: "7th day of Venice." Can you imagine? Perhaps this Seventh Day Adventist makes weekly pilgrimages to Venice for a gondola ride or something.

Yes, you did post that before because I remember reading it! It's still funny. I can't believe someone actually wrote that.
Wait a minute. What am I thinking? Yes, I can believe that.

That's the sad thing. We can believe it!
