Not a thread title, but driving around I saw a big sign on a building: HO WITH A VIEW!
Upon closer approach it, that O was actually a Q.

Also not a thread title, but I once saw a McDonald’s sign advertising: “The difference is in the lawyers!”
Mmm, tasty.
Turned out it really read: “The difference is in the layers.” Big Mac, evidently.

Today I read a Miss Manners letter as “I am a middle-age school boy” instead of “I am a middle school-age boy”.

> Had to make a little road trip. The first visit to a pot shop. It boggles the mind the variety of product. I got three vape cartridges, and an assortment of four 1/8s of flower. I’ve never vaped before, but I’ve read good things. 2 1/2 hour drive to get there, but it’s not like I’m going every day. This stash alone will last me months. Funny thing: as I was about to pay up, I jokingly asked if they took credit cards, and they do! Did the feds loosen something up?
I went to the cannibal store today.
They charged me an arm and a leg.

> I’m sure there are many such, but I was just reading about Tony Conigliaro’s beaning in 1967 and thought “Gee, that should have devastated the Red Sox,” who of course went on to win the 1967 AL pennant. Either through injury or retirement (such as that of Stan Musial, who retired after 1963, but the Cardinals went on to win the World’s Championship in 1964), who do you think is the largest loss endured by a team that went on to win a pennant?
