Recently this sentence was posted, "It is not a question of wanting one. If everybody bought the best then everyone would have a Cadillac, Lincoln, Mercedes, excreta but there a lot of Chevys and Fords on the road."

I'd bet money that the author meant "etcetera" and not "shit", but I could be wrong.

Once I finished laughing, I decided it was good enough to share. :-)

On a similar topic. I cracked up in the bank today. Watching the weather forecast on one of those subtitled TVs. I guess the subtitle machine is some kind of voice recognition thing as when the lady was talking about approaching rainfall, the subtitle read: 'behind this advancing cold front, expect large, heavy breasts.' ( Think she actually said bursts, but she might have said breasts, so I'm currently watching the skies)
