The PC way of saying it, in my family, has been "I had a brain fart".

I think Skuzzy put it into nice words. :)  

Brain farts can happen to anyone, which makes proofreading ones posts (especially witty ones) to threads such as this a necessity.

Can you relate this statement to the literacy/writing ability of your boss?

Our local BK has the following text on the drive through's menu: "Picture menus available on request."

Wouldnt the poor folks who need menus for illiterates have a little trouble with the notice?

as the rumor goes.....once upon a time there was a game made called warcraft-a popular strategy game which turned out to be even more popular and shot of to the onling game "World of Warcraft.  when the first game was made, there was a typo telling you, that you got pwned, instead of owned when defeated in battle.

i think their is also another rumor about this being in another game as well.

and the rest as they say is history:)
