That is so freakin' excellent I almost peed myself !
Even vendors misspell that word and it reveals that they don't understand what the device does.

Carb-EE-n.
Carb-EYE-n sounds like farm equipment.

It is just that the whole break v. brake thing gets to me every time I see it - to me it is pretty obvious which is which, yet I see it all the time - almost always 'break' used where they mean 'brake'.

Cut it off? I was thinking this is a perfect application for a little JB Weld. Stuff fixes everything.

I don't get too upset when folks call magazines clips or other gun related things.

Say Nevada incorrectly, and it ticks a nerve.
