I just received a typo report on one of my books.

My line: Imagine if you went to a well-respected website and found this sentence: LOLZ can u believe sum people thik hummbirds are from Florida?

User note: "people thik hummbirds are from" should be "people thik hummingbirds are from"

REALLY?? First, they're reporting a typo on that line? And second, that's the thing that stood out to them?

This made me laugh. But it was also seriously worrying. Unless it was perhaps someone having a little joke.

I suppose it could be a strange joke - but then it's also odd that Amazon chose to pass that along to me with instructions to fix it. Someone vetted that complaint and thought it valid to pass along ... that's not good either :).
