Everyone loves a good autocorrect story. But what happens when you accidentally read a word incorrectly and continue the conversation...even though the topic seems strange?
I was interviewing at a graduate school and noticed that each door was adorned with a mezuzah. My mom misread the text and thought I said that each deer had a mezuzah. Despite the fact that that idea is TOTALLY weird, she accepted it (even after my kosher comment) and did not realize until hours later that she had misread my first message. She later told me that she had pictured wire deer lawn ornaments with mezuzot around their neck....which would actually be pretty cool.
