When you add the lack of capitalization, misplaced or missing punctuation, incorrect verb conjugation, and so on, you're far out of the realm of typos and into the realm of a need for remedial English classes. When you add to that the fact that the OP could have, after a good night's sleep, gone back and edited his initial post to correct its errors, but apparently didn't find any errors in need of correction, the contrast between those posts and a finger slipping from "k" to "l" is heightened.
I wasn't really comparing mistakes, just that when you start pointing out the mistakes of others then you have to place yourself under the same scrutiny (and as I proved, that scrutiny is never enough).

EDIT: As TGS proved
