This NSFW typo and correction about Julia Roberts is one of the all-time greats
The multi-faceted Simon London – producer, presenter, journalist and content creator – has given us a welcome blast from the past with this classic typo from New York’s Post Journal.

H isn’t even close to R on the keyboard, so that’s got to be a bit Freudian. Not very holesome.
The typo, and correction, brought joy to Twitter – even those who had seen it before.
I had completely forgotten about this, one of the all-time great typos, and have just spent a full minute shriek-laughing in glee https://t.co/W48D4EbDmH

As a former sub-editor this makes me howl with pain and mirth in equal measure 😭 https://t.co/haUMiItXCe

We suspect the person responsible for this one chanted “Jobs blow. Jobs blow. Jobs blow.” in their mind – before losing the plot.

We hope they didn’t suffer a job blow.
