This site is pretty amusing!

There was a poster I saw while in Korea last year. It was published by the Korean ministry of tourism, and embarassingly it said: "Korean fork songs festival".. Obviously they were trying to say "Korean FOLK songs festival"...

My dad was in hospital recently, and when he was supposed to leave they gave him a
feedback form. One of the questions was: "How better could we have made your stay
better?"
