The worst typo I ever made was texting my friend who is a Black woman that she needed a bigger TV. Unfortunately the b & n are right next to each other on the keyboard and I wrote one of the most offensive words ever. Even though it was an innocent mistake, I apologized profusely to her.
This is a good reason to use Dvorak
Would probably just go crawl into a hole after that.

Fixed the link for you
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/tamerragriffin/yahoo-finance-removed-navy-typo
That URL seems to get censored across instances because your link also just replaces the offending word with "removed" for me. Everyone else, if you see "removed" or something like that in the above link, just replace it with the offensive word this discussion is about; or just do a web search for yahoo finance tweet n word to find various articles about it.
