Cutwords (aka Cu2rds)

41 readers
1 users here now

Cutwords (aka Cu2rds) - when words are cut (or smooshed together) in unintended places, creating a completely different meaning.

Rules

  1. Posts must feature a wrong syntaxic interpretation (for example, a word being read as two words or vice-versa) leading to an unintended meaning. (Except meta posts - see rule 4.)

  2. Language - any language is allowed for now, but please indicate it with the language setting on post creation.

  3. Reposts - duplicates of posts already posted in Cu2rds will be removed. Reposts from other communities are allowed and welcomed.

  4. Meta posts - if your post is about the Cu2rds community itself (e.g. suggestions for rule changes) please start your title with a [META] tag.

  5. The usual - no illegal stuff, be nice to each other and respect the lemmy.world and Lemmy rules.


These rules are intentionally very laxist for now to allow more content there - we'll see if we need more strict rules if the community grows.

I had to think for a minute about what the heck Cardo Nation for Veterans could possibly be.

I saw it on another car as I was driving and the font was smushed together (kerning was off). We have a lot of health nuts where I live and we have a strong military presence with 2 bases so I thought maybe it was a misspelling of cardio nation for vets. Yeah! Get strong!

Car Donation for Vets. I felt like an idiot.

You're welcome to post that in Cu2rds as well ! It definitely fits the "words split at the wrong place" theme which is what Cu2rds is all about. Gonna change the sidebar to make it clear that's allowed.

Also, can't believe people are actually posting here ;)

May Cardo Nation heal the veterans !
