Each issue has pictures submitted by subscribers with funny typos, or syntax or conjunctions of items.
This last one has a picture of a fuel pump from a gas station and there is a warning: "Put nozzle in tank before fueling." CR titled it "Gas Pumping for Dummies." And then I remembered a movie where several guys met at the gas station and started spritzing each other from the nozzles as it they were water. And then, of course, someone lit a match..

On the gas thing, I saw a kid taking the nozzle out too soon and it was still pumping, he got it all over himself, he must have been pressing on the handle.
