Say What? – Specimen 3

  • Location of Discovery: online car forum
  • Context: story about being pulled over for no apparent reason
  • Required Background: basic spelling and grammar

"After 5 minutes of bickering back and forth the officer after my refusal to search my car just out of shear president."

  • My Immediate Reaction: laughter
  • Analysis: "Shear President" must be a hair salon in Washington, D.C.. Salons love puns. Also, while a capital letter and a period earn bonus English points on the internet, it helps if there is some sort of decipherable sentence structure in between.
