[(Hypothetical) Should the US step in to help America?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/hypothetical-should-the-us-step-in-to-help-armenia/971844/1)

Maybe I’m just in need of more coffee, but for some reason today I keep seeing " [Intentionally misspelling cock: Cunning or stupid idea?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/intentionally-missetting-clock-cunning-or-stupid-idea/971731/29)"

It took me until today to realize what the grammar was supposed to be in [this pit thread title](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/shop-class-no-no-s-shorts-long-hair-and-giant-prosthetic-boobs/971773/506). I was wondering what “no no’s shorts” were. Like, were they a new version of really short shorts? Then I realized there should have been a colon so that it read “Shop class no-no’s: shorts, [etc]”.
