Misheard

“Celebrate your love of crap with this year's largest variety. ’Cause it's crapfest” —

No, it’s Crabfest. At Red Lobster.

This post teaches why it’s important to watch television commercials and not listen with half an ear. Had I seen all that crab flying, I wouldn’t have heard crap. You can listen to the commercial in question for yourself, eyes closed, and decide whether crap is a reasonable mishearing.

I’m surprised to see that in 2006 I also misheard crab as crap. There is nothing new under the sun. It’s all crap.
