We all know what teh is in its literal sense (if it has one): a misspelling of the. But what does it mean to you? When you see it or use it, is it percieved as a bit of humour? Or perhaps an insult? Or is it simply a typo and nothing more?
Teh is many things to many people. Personally I hate teh but I'm sure some MacNNers think that it is teh funniest thing since 1337.

I hate it when it's used unintentionally or as a corruption of "the". However, I'm forced to admit that I've grown fond of using it as an adjective-modifying adverb meaning "extremely". I suppose that's teh lame, but whatever.

I hate misspellings, and intentional misspellings even moreso. The "leet" mentality seems to be focused on immature and undereducated young males with nothing on their minds but games and sex-IN THAT ORDER. And considering the physical specimens I've met who live that lifestyle, they better be pretty good with their games!

Usually the spell checker catches that one and fixes it for me. The one I hate is when I type so fast and I accindentally skip the r in your and accidentally type you.
For example: The dog got you slippers for you. Spell checkers don't see it, and you look stupid.

If it isn't for work, I could care less. teh is a common mispelling by accident, and I think it just caught on... I don't really dig the L33T crap though.

I only use "teh" when I'm trying to make fun of "ppl who use teh intarweb!!!!111oneoneeleven"
Most of the time I find it unfunny, except when I saw it (inadvertently) used in a transcribed history and physical examination report I dictated at the hospital. The best part was that it was mistyped in a "computer-related" line: "The patient was sitting at teh computer when he experienced the sudden onset of severe substernal chest pain, which radiated to the left side of his face."
And what was the patient doing when he had his heart attack? Surfing teh intarweb looking for pr0n, of course  (NOTE: this is a joke. I don't think this patient was participating in said activity. The typo was real, though).

You'll find plenty of stupid teenage girls who use it too.
Oh, and I hate intentionally incorrectly spelled words too. Accidents we have to live with--yes, even with spell check.
