Another one that I mis-parsed rather than misread:

[Just Stop Oil protesters](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/just-stop-oil-protesters/970406/33)

I kept reading it as a command to stop oil protesters. I only just realized that “Just Stop Oil” was the name of the organization doing the protesting (I hadn’t really read the thread before).
