    I'm glad we're discussing this like semi-sober adults in these fora.  Imagine the nonsense we'd see if we tried bringing it up in immature, intoxicate forums like Facebook!  We'd have to charge and prime our blunderbi for self-defense!

    I think immature is an oxymoron when used in the same sentence as Facebook at this point. So many people I haven't spoken to since high-school and I needed a cultural phenomenon to remind me of why.

    I'll pop in here, briefly, again. I've noticed, over the years that too many ads or product pages here, and elsewhere contain way too many errors. It appears the companies who host the stores don't care. In my old age, I've come to accept things that won't change, no matter how much I feel like shrieking protests with my considerably loud voice.

    I was in a supermarket the other day. On the shelf was a kitchen utensil for shredding cheese. The sign was in big bold letters. GATER. I think mistakes like this often result from people being expected to do to much for too little pay. Which has been happening in this country for decades. We've just about concluded our race to the bottom.

    A local grocery chain has, as an overhead product locator sign, "Can juice, Glass, juice, Fruit juice". First question is how anyone could juice a can or glass jar; second question is who would want to purchase the result.

    I looked at the cheese, and I see it is shredded,

    While my gater gently weeps.

    And remember, the past tense of blunderbuss is blunderbusted.

    If your gater breaks a string, does that make it an allegory?

    A cultural phenom that North American grocery stores were faced with is some Central and South American counties is the label often shows what's inside the can. So a trip down the cat food and dog food isle can be an eye opening experience for some shoppers..

    And back on the original topic of this thread, we have another puzzling ad today. Are we blending that hair or are we bending that hair? Are we blending that light or are we bending that light?

    Yeah, try to blame that one on dyslexia.

    That looks deliberate to me.

    Either would actually work within the theme.

    Seems the Ad folks have been reading this thread. This is their version of the half naked lady in Disney's "The Rescuers" devil, only family friendly (it is Utah, after all).

    Wait... I'm not supposed to be intoxicated while I'm posting here... ?

    To be clear... That's mostly how I end up here...

    Naa, that's just the beer talking... Possibly the tequila... Or perhaps the rum... It's hard to tell....
