Typo of the day is snicjkered, which I take to be an especially insidious style of snickering.

e.g. “He didn’t just snicker at me–he snicjkered! So I impaled him on my snickersnee.”

A guy with unkempt hair and hairy legs wielding a sword too long to be a snickersnee. The image is captioned by a line from Gilbert & Sullivan's The Mikado: "I drew my snickersnee".
