Misled is when you take someone some direction by making them think something else, so they make the choice willingly under the false pretense.  Mislead is when you hit someone over the head with a pipe and drag them the direction you want them to go.

Yeah, it's really awful to make you click more stuff so we can get paid, poor you. 

Yes, poor me. I would rather pay for the content outright rather than waste my time by clicking, clicking, clicking..... It would increase privacy, too. As a libertarian I thought you would appreciate wanting to not be tracked and mislead just to read an article for "free".

But when I read those articles anyway, I guess the anti-joke is on me.

Aaaaargh! It's "misled"! "Lead" is not like "read"! The past tense of "lead" is "led", and the past tense of "mislead" is "misled"! Goddamit, people! Get it right!

He was just trying to mislead us.

Does anyone else miss lead? It used to be in everything.

No. Even tiny amounts of lead have been found to be incredibly toxic and detrimental to brain chemistry.

Typo, sorry.

I'm also sorry for flying off the handle. I'm not mad at you, Polk. I've just been seeing this everywhere on the internet recently. Everybody misspells "led".

The second-best contribution to the anti-joke thread.

The first being the pianist. That was a piece of work.

I am finding all of these hillarious, which is against the spirit of this thread, therefore everyone who posts something that amuses me, im going to hunt down on of your previous posts I have +1'd and then unvote it.

(I'm not really because A) that would be mean, b) it would be against the spirit of the forum, C) I'm actually just really really lazy)
