I tend to misread words, replacing them with something that makes the meaning funny, Like a 'comedy dyslexia' (not meaning to offend dyslexics of course, just only seems to happen when the misreading makes the meaning absurd). Easily makes me laugh but I don't care if others hear it. I'd rather hear someone giggle than having a sweary rant (or be responsible for said output!) 
I do that all the time. A classic that stuck with me was misreading my teacher's comments on my school report (misread 'erratic' as 'erotic')

Lots of positives for that, then. 
I suspect this one might have quite a bit of diagnostic power, for a single trait. I wonder if NTs ever do this? I imagine that they might smile at their thoughts occasionally, but never to the point where it looks unusual, and that they'd usually be able to explain it, and to get the other person to see the joke.
