My Brain Has A Mind Of Its Own

I like to think I'm pretty good at reading. After all, I've been doing it since I was four.

With overly rapid scanning, however, a communication error between eyes and brain can occur and those pesky words turn themselves into something else entirely.

Thus I somehow translated a flyer from Viking Direct:

IT'S MAY BARGAIN DAY!

into:

IT'S MY GAY BAR!

Actually, the idea of Viking branching out from office stationery into bar paraphernalia, gay or otherwise, is quite appealing.
