Florida Governor Rick Scott made a terrible mistake while he was trying to help the fungal meningitis outbreak by giving out the meningitis hotline's number during a cabinet meeting on Tuesday. The only problem was that he gave out a number for a phone sex line instead. Scott simply misread the number and mixed one of the digits up, thereby leading to the phone sex line popping up. It has since been fixed, but I have to imagine that for a little bit it may have been a tad embarrassing.

This is something that I've always been afraid of in a professional setting. Not mixing up a number with a phone sex line per se, but mixing anything up with any type of porn. There's porn everywhere; mixing up a letter in a Google search might lead to a pair of boobs popping up on your computer. Hell, if you don't think your search query all the way through, you could end up with something horrific on your screen. If for some reason you were looking for a girl in a tub and typed out "tub girl," your day would be ruined.

TL;DR A Florida Governor mixes up the phone number for a meningitis hotline with a phone sex hotline.
